I Bet You Didn't Know...

I don't give out much in the way of personal information about myself, but here's a fact.

I'm a horseperson. I have been ever since childhood. I grew up riding the range with friends, exploring old ghost towns and mines in the hills above my small town. In college I took dressage and jumping lessons. After college I bought a nice little Quarter Horse. He did everything, dressage, western and English pleasure, jumping, and trail riding. I even tried barrel racing, but he was too slow.

I grew up in cattle country and have attended many rodeos over the years.

I actually started a menage regarding two rodeo riders paid to protect a public figure's rodeo princess daughter. While I put it on the back burner, I'm considering pulling that one back out of moth balls.

What should I do? If anyone has any suggestions, let me know.

Life Interrupted

Yes, I know, it's been a long time coming, but I finally have a new release out today. I'm working on two more projects as we speak, a romantic suspense involving twin brothers, one a firefighter, the other a PI. The heroine is searching for the women who stole her identity and ruined her life.

My other project involves "mail order brides" in a way. That's all I'll say about that one.

So where have I been? First of all, 2009 was a year of wonderful things and a year of incredibly painful things. When 2010 started, I vowed to keep the people who'd created me so much pain last year on the edge of my life instead of in the middle of it. So far, it's working quite well, and my creative juices have finally started flowing.

What you may not know is that I also write m/f romances under another pen name. I'm waiting to hear back from a few publishers on my latest completed novel. I'm also working on the sequel.

I'm hoping to have another Sofia book available this year. This'll be a much longer, more involved novel, more in line with my m/f romances. I'll be spending more time getting to know the characters and their motivations than I have in my past Sofia books. I can't wait for what the future holds for me and my books.

Yes, I'm Still Here

I've haven't posted much on this blog, but I assure you I'm actively writing. My next release is due out early summer from Siren Publishing as part of the Menage Amour line. My next novel is a continuation of Natalie and Levi's story. As soon as I have a cover and a publication date, I'll post it.

Here's a blurb:

Natalie fears Levi is falling out of love with her. When he hires his best friend as a ranch hand, she’s equally shocked at the uncontrollable attraction she feels toward him. How will Levi respond if he finds out?
Levi Kelly’s sexual desires go way beyond the missionary position. When his best friend, Trace, admits to falling for his girlfriend, Levi proposes they share her. The two men slowly seduce Natalie, teaching her she has more than enough love for two men.

I'm also working on a historical and a romantic suspense/mystery novel.
