The Only One

Sparks fly when Piper Vaughn, a Manhattan real estate agent, meets Richard Spencer, a wealthy English businessman in New York for a year on an extended project and looking for a place to live. She's blonde and beautiful, with a sweet smile and bubbly personality, while he's tall and lean, with bright blue eyes and a laidback demeanor, and also nearly 20 years her senior. Though the attraction is mutual and instantaneous, they try to keep their relationship strictly professional, but as soon as they close on Richard's new apartment, they can't resist each other any longer.

A sweet and passionate romance develops between the two, but before they know it, Richard's project is over and he must return to London. This abrupt wake-up call is compounded by the return of Piper's ex-boyfriend, and she is faced with a life changing decision. Should she stay in New York, the city she never thought she would want to leave, or give everything up to start a new life in London with the man she loves?

Cover Designer Spotlight + Cover Reveal

When I first started self-publishing books, I made my own covers, because it was cheaper. Having spent several years making graphics for fun for the various fandoms I was in, I had a small amount of experience, and my covers were okay. I have my strengths (enhancing coloring, blending images together) and of course my weaknesses (I've never been particularly good at working with text, and I don't have much patience when it comes to cutting things out of images, or changing the color of things like hair or clothing). I redid the cover for The Only One myself a couple years ago, and I'm still pretty pleased with it; it better conveys the steamy nature of the book, and the warmer colors better express the overall tone of the story, plus I got to blend two images together, which has always been one of my favorite things to do. However, I was less enthused with my cover for No Safe Place . I searched endlessly for a picture that conveyed the tone I wanted, and finally had to se

Goodbye 2018

Well, it's New Year's Eve. I hope everybody had a wonderful holiday, whatever you celebrate. I had a nice Christmas in Colorado with my family, and didn't particularly want to come home, and not just because the highs here in Florida are currently in the 70's. 2018 didn't feel like a very productive year for me. I finished Crimson Hollow Book 1, got my rights back on No Safe Place , and had a fairly successful sale on Finding Home Again over Christmas, but apart from that, this year was just a little lacking. I'm hopeful that 2019 will be better. I want to try to get better about promoting my books, now that they're all under my control again, and I'm hoping that I can finish Crimson Hollow Book 2 and start working on Book 3. I also want to get the No Safe Place / Finding Home Again wedding short published sometime early in the year. I had a dream last night that quickly morphed into a new book idea when I woke up, so maybe it's a good omen

Where does the time go?

Well, a lot of things have happened in the past month, lol. Still have my same job, but started a new client who I really like and they're really easy. Unfortunately, I've been off work for the past almost two weeks because I ended up having carpal tunnel release surgery on my left hand. I have my post-op follow-up tomorrow, and hopefully he'll give me a work release so I can go back. Because of this, I haven't been able to do much of anything, but my hand is feeling much better (as evidenced by me typing this blog post...), and I'm hoping to dive back into Becoming Family , make the changes that need to be made, and finally get that released. I did not think this would become a year-long odyssey, but such is 2020... Also hoping once I get that out, I can embrace the season and start working on Winter's Noelle . Obviously I didn't end up doing NaNo this year, but hopefully no matter. Fingers crossed it won't take long to write, but I can't make any p
