Lisa wrote: "Will any of your upcoming books include characters from previous novels?"
Hi Lisa! In general, I've stopped including past characters in future books, so as to not create the impression that books need to be read in order. I prefer to write fresh stories for fresh characters. Our co-written Cocky Bastard books, however, are known for small cameos from one particular side-character, but nothing close to an entire book written for one. Thanks for your question! <3

Hello... I always have so many questions so sorry in advance I couldn't choose one...
-Who is your greatest hero?
-Can you give us a tiny hint about what you're writing next?
-What is your proudest moment writing some of your characters?
Thanks, xo

Hi Antonella! It's hard to choose a favorite hero, but I think if I had to, it would be Damien from my novel Neighbor Dearest. He's equally funny as he is sweet and has a great protective nature. It's hard to pinpoint why he's my favorite aside from just an overall inexplicable feeling. My next novel releases 8/19, The Day He Came Back. It's a second-chance romance that spans a decade. I hope you have a chance to check it out! My proudest moment writing is always the point where I realize there is no going back and the book is going to actually happen. It's always hard to know when you start a book if it will be finished to completion until maybe a third of the way through. You definitely have to feel the characters and see the entire story in order to understand their purpose. Thank you for your questions!

I will definitely check it out. I love all of your books that have a time span in them. I mean My Skylar wrecked me( in a good way) and many books later I still remember it. Or Nina and Jake. So so good... Maybe that is just my preference as a reader but there is something about slow burn romance that brings out the emotion.
I hope that writing it was cathartic writing it as it was reading it...

Are you referring to RoomHate in terms of surprises? LOL If so...the entire second half of the book! But in general...this entire year is full of surprises. I have a new solo book coming August 19th and Vi Keeland and I have two co-writes and maybe some Christmas surprises coming before the end of the year! 2019 is action packed!

Hi Penelope I loved reading Roomhate. As a native Rhode Islander, I really felt as if I was there. Looking forward to reading more stories written by you.
I have read quite a few of your books and I love that they are not just any romance novels but novels that manipulate my emotions so well. you are a master writer!! my question which is your favorite trope to write about and which out of all your books is your favorite?

Thank you Monique! My favorite trope is definitely friends to lovers, I think. There is something so emotional about the transition of a relationship from friendship to love. If I had to pick one book out of all of my solo books, it would be Neighbor Dearest! One from my co-writes would be: British Bedmate! <3
