Bio
By day, I am a sedate, however accomplished, young adult novelist. By night, though, I become a foul-mouthed vixen with a penchant for expensive coffee, thrift shop clothing, and bad ‘80s comedy and scifi. (P.S. I really, really like cats, unicorns, and anything that glitters/glows/shits glitter while glowing. Just sayin’.) All in all, morphing into a dispenser of romance is a natural outlet for my talents. Or, so I hope.
Anyway, if I can leave you with anything, ladies, it’s that I took a chance in writing Bombshell (Up-close & Personal Novella No. 1). It’ll either sink or swim. You’ll love it or hate it. But you know what? In the end, I threw a middle finger to the life I knew, and I stepped out on faith that something, anything, could happen from telling Jacque’s story in Bombshell. In telling hers, I kinda sorta told mine, too. So, let’s all take her mama’s advice, shall we?
Just live. Every damn day: LIVE.

Q & A
My story, Full Monty, in the Christmas Kisses Anthology stars Montague Cotton and Amelia Sherwood, known to me as “Monty and Millie.” Their story begins somewhere between Knockout, the second book in my Up-Close and Personal Series, and Hot Rod, the third installment. Monty and Millie will receive their own sassy, sweet, and sexy story in Fox Trot, coming 2018. These two are wickedly hilarious and perfectly prove that “opposites attract.” Here’s the blurb for “Full Monty:” When naive and quirky Millie Sherwood walks into New Orleans’ most popular strip club on Christmas Eve, she never expects to meet the sexy, smooth talkin’ Monty Cotton. She also doesn’t expect to awake on Christmas morning, in his bed, with no clue as to how she got there. Though nothing happened the night before, Monty is convinced Millie is more than willing to join him on the naughty list. What Monty discovers when he finally gets to unwrap Millie makes him realize she may be the best Christmas gift of all. For Monty and Millie, Santa never comes early. 😉
world to Carey and Atticus!! Here’s the blurb for Hot Rod: THE BRITISH INVASION IS HERE, AND HE’S GOT SUPERMAN HAIR. At my best friend’s wedding a few months ago, I laid eyes on the most beautiful man I have ever seen. All dressed up in a tux, he was a sexy Clark Kent wannabe–tall, dark, and handsome. Then, when he opened his mouth, Atticus Sherwood revealed himself to be as British as a fucking crumpet. Yeah, I should’ve taken a bite out of him, but he left before I could nibble his fine English muffin. Now, Atticus is back in New Orleans. Before I know it, his tongue has me screaming the Queen’s name, and my heart is crying out for more than a torrid affair with this bed-breaking Brit. There’s just one little problem: love broke me once before, and I swore to myself I wouldn’t let it happen again. Is taking a leap with Atticus worth the risk? Maybe I just need to trust I’ve finally found my own Superman to catch me when I fall. Thank God he doesn’t come faster than a speeding bullet. 😉Social Media
