Dear Diary,  Graham Pennington is something else.   Don’t get me wrong, he’s hot. In the rich, frat boy kinda way that would have gotten him either laughed out of prison or made him very popular with certain guys.   I knew who he was of course. Top line winger. Golden boy.   The kind of franchise building player who Gavin’s always salivating over.   Squeaky-clean too. The dude’s probably never smoked weed or gotten so much as a speeding ticket.   He’s a decent guy though, I’ll give him...

Graham couldn't seem to move, to breathe, to push Thad away. All he could do was stare at his face as the laughter faded from it and turned into something sharper. Hungrier ...

Although we won’t be doing another Christmas Falls season this year, we do have something special for you.   Along with DJ Jamison, Beth Bolden, Rye Cox, and Jacki James, I worked with the amazing artist Lauren Dombrowski to create illustrated covers for some of the Christmas Falls titles.    We had a great time creating these special edition paperbacks and I couldn’t be happier with the way the cover for Scrooge You! turned out.  Aren’t Hayden & Joel adorable ? And I love all of the little...

Hope you’re having a good week. Mine has been a little chaotic (really feeling that Mercury in Retrograde energy right now …) but I’ve gotten a lot done.   I bought and assembled a comfy new desk chair because my previous one was getting so old. The cushion was losing its supportiveness and the latch that lets me lean back in it/lock it upright went on the fritz.  I figured it was time to get something more comfortable.    My humidifier and my garment steamer both died too. Like I said …...

Surprise! I’ll be back with my usual blog post on Friday, but this is a quick one to announce a super-secret project I’ve been working on!  Although we will not be doing a new season of Christmas Falls this year, some of us did do a special edition of one of our previous season books!  We worked with an amazing artist named Lauren Dombrowski to create beautiful illustrated covers.   I absolutely love what she created for Scrooge You! It captures the moment Joel helps Hayden into Ginger’s...

It’s been a whirlwind of a week.   My knee is feeling GREAT. The lingering stiffness when I kneel is gone and I’m back to my usual walking sprints on the treadmill.   Finishing the first draft of Delayed Penalty gave me a burst of energy and I checked off some tasks that have been lingering on my list, including shipping out something I’d promised to send to a friend … oh, a year and a half ago?   If you wondered why Kim has taken over shipping signed books … uh, this is it, friends....

Happy Halloween!  I can’t believe October is almost over.   This week my focus has been almost entirely on wrapping up Delayed Penalty  and watching hockey.  There was a really wild Penguins vs. Flyers game the other night where I learned two new rules that I didn’t even know existed! That’s always fun.   Somehow, my Penguins are 2 nd  in the entire league, despite the fact that we have several ancient players (in hockey years) along with some baby prospects, and no one thought we were going...

Dear Diary,  I met a guy today.   That sounds so stupid. I say that like I don’t meet new people all the time. That’s kinda part of the deal being a pro hockey player, you know?  But this guy is different.   For one, he’s the twin brother of my GM. Wild, because I didn’t even know Gavin HAD a twin until Thad showed up. Also, because he just got hired by the Harriers about a month ago.   I guess technically we “officially” met shortly after he was hired. Tyson, the PR director, brought Thad...
