Everybody Knows

Everybody Knows, the third installment in the "Honeybee Hollow" series, is going live on Thursday, May 15. Get ready for some sizzling fun.

You can enjoy it without reading Jack of Hearts and Buddy System first, but if you do read them, you'll know the town and its inhabitants better.

The early reviews are terrific! Thanks to everyone who has and who will post one.

Happy Reading!

New year, new book!

Happy New Year, everyone! Here's hoping for the best year ever.

Keep your eyes open for the release of my newest book, Buddy System. It's going to be live and on Kindle Unlimited on January 21, 2025. It's the release anniversary of Group Hug because once again it's National Hug Day. I found the day to be an auspicious one. <3

Buddy System is sexy and emotional. Twists and turns will keep you turning pages. The MMF scenes will keep you fanning your face.

I hope you fall in love with these characters as much as I did, and hopefully, your visit to Honeybee Hollow will be just what you need.

New Book!

I'm so excited to announce the release date for Casting Vows , Book 3 in the Hearts of Gold series. It is available now for pre-order and will go live on July 16, 2024. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D4KLVZW4

Oh, man, this one is a doozie! It's another historical MMF book in the post-gold rush era. In this book, the characters have moved to Los Angeles but we're not completely done with San Francisco just yet.

This book is about Nico who was just born in the final chapter of Fiddle and Fire . It's his love story with Matty and Eden- two amazing characters. Matty is lovable, and Eden doesn't take any guff from anyone! This was so much fun to write.

It's steamy and unpredictable.

Don't miss it!

News!

Thank you to everyone who has embraced Group Hug so positively. It's doing great!

I have news!

Thanks to a new program offered by Amazon, I now have my 6 earliest books all in AUDIO. That means The Drummonds series and Lovers in Louisville are available from both Amazon and Audible for the ridiculously low price of $5.99. At least, that's the regular price. Audible has them at a reduced sale price! https://www.audible.com/search?keywor...
Take a look!
Happy Reading and Listening.

Fiddle and Fire is on fire!

Readers! I am so excited about the success of Fiddle and Fire and how it's doing. Thank you! If you haven't picked up a copy yet or borrowed it with Kindle Unlimited, do yourself a favor. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BZFX74WQ And don't forget the book that comes before it in the series- The Golden Rush. It got off to a rocky start, but suddenly it's doing great too! https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09... I couldn't be happier about this. Life is good.

Fiddle and Fire- Steamy but not erotica!

Just a couple more days, and Fiddle and Fire will be live on Amazon in all formats, and from Barnes and Noble in paperback. I can't wait for you all to read it!

There has been a bit of confusion about the genre of the book, so I will reiterate. It is a steamy, historical MMF romance, but it is not and was NEVER meant to be erotica. It was listed in NetGalley in erotica with a disclaimer that it is not pure erotica. They do not have an erotic romance category, so this was the best we could do. If a book is just listed in Historical Romance, it quickly becomes lost amongst all of the clean romances. Then some historical romance readers find MMF sex and get all bent out of shape about it and call it porn.

Unfortunately, some reviewers don't read blurbs, so the disclaimer was lost on them, and they were disappointed that the book wasn't all super descriptive sex. Sorry (not sorry) about that.

I do my best to alert readers to the content, but if someone plows ahead expecting something other than what's there, I can't help it.

I hope you love the book. I do.

Need you!

Hi beautiful readers!

My newest book Fiddle and Fire is nearing its completion of the editing process and will be set loose on the world on May 1. It's available now for pre-order. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BZFX74WQ

ARC copies will also be available soon from various sources for legitimate reviewers.

Now here's where I could use your help! Amazon, in their infinite wisdom, has deemed the cover and book too sexy for their dainty eyes, and they refuse to allow me to advertise. Normally that's how I've garnered pre-orders in the past, so I need the word spread through less traditional ways. Please, please help spread the word that the book is coming. Take a look at the blurb and the cover and see if it's for you, and then share the info with your book club, friends, hairdresser, dental hygienist, dog walker, mother-in-law... anyone you can!

This is a historical MMF romance set in 1855 San Francisco after the Gold Rush. It's a sequel to The Golden Rush, but the story is a standalone, and it's much less of a history book than TGR. It's nice and sexy with LOTS of great suspense. The characters are lovable with off-the-chart chemistry.

Happy Reading!

It's almost here!

The Passion of 3 is almost ready to go live. Monday, November 14 is the day!

If you've enjoyed my other MMF stories, you'll like this one too. Follow up a bit on the lovable characters from The Rule of 3 and get to know Eli's sister Caro way better in this one.

Music, horses, hot guys, and plenty of passion. What's not to love? ;) I even wrote an original song to go with it. One of these days, I'll figure out how to post the melody so you can hear the music. Or play it from the score in the book if you're musically inclined.

I hope you all fall in love with Nash and Greyson as much as I did. Caro is a lucky woman. But it's not all smooth sailing for them... you'll see...

Coming soon!

By popular demand, the sequel to The Rule of 3 will be released in a couple of months. Look for the second installment in the "Perfect Number" series. The Passion of 3 is Caro Whittaker's story, and it promises to deliver a delightful yarn with plenty of MMF heat! I'll let you know as soon as it's available for pre-order.
