Happy Valentine's Day - A Free Story This Weekend Only!

Happy Valentine's Day everyone! In celebration I'm offering my story Finding Beauty free, but only for this weekend. Next week it will be back at regular price. So if you haven't read it, now's the time.  A handsome billionaire who doesn’t do relationships. A scarred women who knows a man like him is not for her. I buy failing businesses, turn them around, sell them for a profit. It’s what I do. Except, for one. One company I’ve held onto the longest, because of Amanda. How did a sexy computer nerd get to me? I don’t do relationships. Been there, done that. Amanda thinks she’s anything but beautiful because of her scarred face. She’s wrong. I want to show her how wrong she is, but being with her makes me long for things I’ve sworn off. She thinks I’m the beauty and she’s the beast. Can I prove her wrong and still keep from falling for her? Finding Beauty is a stand alone short story romance. If you like it short, sweet and steamy, this story is for you. You c...

A Valentine's Gift Coming This Weekend

I’ve been trying to stay warm these past two weeks since we’ve had another one of those polar vortex things in my part of the world. In trying to do so, I’ve been hard at work on the next story in my Wedding Troubles Series. As of now, I’m not sure when I’ll get this story out, but it's coming along and I’m making lots of progress. During all this cold and snow, I thought of Valentine’s Day. Since I write romance, I figured this was a good time of the year to offer a little gift to everyone. So be sure to check back on Friday to see what it is!

New Release - The Maid of Dishonor

 At long last another new release. I'd seriously hoped to have this story out way before now, but at least it's done and out into the world. I really had a lot of fun writing this story and can only hope you have a lot of fun reading it. Enjoy! My sister has always taken advantage of me. I know this. She asks for my help for another one of her schemes, and I agree. As always, her plan backfires. Why do I do this to myself? Chloe My sister is getting married and asked me to be the maid of honor. It’s an arranged marriage she wants no part of. She’s already concocted a plan to get out of it. It involves me going out with her super-hot fiancé to make it look like we’re having an affair to create a scandal. Her fiancé turns out to be an emotionless stick in the mud. No wonder she doesn’t want to marry him. The problem is that her plan isn’t working. What’s worse is this man is growing on me. Which isn't part of the plan. What has she gotten me into this time? Rowan I was okay w...

Cover Reveal, Subscribe by Email Revisited and Other Updates

I have another new release coming soon. The Maid of Dishonor, the second book in my Wedding Troubles Series. This one has the tropes of an arranged marriage and the wrong sister. It was a lot of fun to write. I don’t have a release date, but it should be soon. But for now here is my shiny new cover for that story: Subscribe by Email If you recall, my subscribe by email was going away. I outlined the reasons in a post here . The main reason was that my own email address got booted for some unknown reason. There were other reasons, but honestly, this was the big one. Right after I published that post, I saw that my email had been re-added to the list. I’m guessing it was some sort of glitch on the end of the provider. I suppose this could happen with any service. And like I said in my previous post about this, nothing is perfect. I have searched and searched for a comparable service, but as of now, nothing is in my price range. I’ve thought about doing a regular newsletter, but honestly ...

Happy New Year - Looking Ahead to 2026

  A big happy New Year to everyone! I’m really looking forward to 2026. While I don’t have any big New Year’s resolutions, I have been scheming some plans for the coming year. Besides, New Year resolutions last only about two weeks anyway. While I didn’t publish nearly the amount of stories I wanted to in 2025, I felt I learned a ton of stuff when it comes to writing. I released only two stories in 2025. I know, pathetic, but it was better than no stories, so there’s that. I am nearing the final stages of the next story in my Wedding Troubles Series. I’d hoped to have it out by now, but when Christmas hit this year, I just sort of shut down and enjoyed things. Maybe I needed that because life has been quite stressful since Thanksgiving. My main computer going kaput and both a major and a minor household appliances gave up the ship along with the computer. I think I just needed to take a big step back and regroup. Now, with the holidays coming to a close, I’m excited for the coming...

For Those Who Celebarate Christmas. . .

  I had really hoped to get another Holiday Wishes story out this year for Christmas. I do love Christmas romance stories, both reading and writing them. Alas, it was not meant to be this year. Back in early November I was working hard on the next story in my Wedding Troubles Series. I'm happy to report the next story is drafted with a couple of edits done. It still needs some work, but looking at the calendar, I decided to set it aside and do a Christmas romance. I had a story mostly drafted when disaster struck. My main computer died. Usually I'm really good about backing things up. Except, you know, sometimes I get lazy. Needless to say, I've not been able to access the hard drive yet to see if I can retrieve that story. Being ambitious, I started a whole new story, but as time when on, it became apparent there was no way I could do a story that fast. I had other things going wrong in my life at this time and it became overwhelming trying to deal with everything all at o...

Subscribe by Email is Going Away. . . For Now

  When I first set up this site, FeedBurner had a nice subscribe by email option built into the site. I really appreciated it. FeedBurner was by no means perfect, but then again, nothing is. Google eventually shut down the subscribe by email part of FeedBurner. Like many other bloggers, I searched for a replacement. Like many others, I opted to go with follow.it for this service. Again, this was not a perfect option, but let’s go back to nothing is perfect. With follow.it, they placed ads in the emails, which were not too obtrusive. I figured I could live with this for now. If I gained more subscribers, I’d either go for a paid version of follow.it to remove the ads or something else. I always subscribe to my own blog so that way I can monitor things and make sure they work. I also subscribe to a few other bloggers who use the same service. A few months ago, I noticed that instead of putting my post content in the email, follow.it instead sent a link to click on to read the post. I...
