Dear Passion Pursuers,

I need your help choosing my next book! But first, how’s your summer treating you? (Or winter, for my Southern Hemisphere readers!) Here in Michigan, it’s been so wet and cool that I’m starting to think spring doesn’t want to leave. Which has given me extra time indoors to work on several new stories.

Poll: You Choose My Next Book!

• Little Red Riding Hood adult romance retelling
• Hope and Jackson’s story for the Lake House Love series
• Second book in the new Billionaire Blackstone series

Little Red Riding Hood adult romance retelling Ruby thought she knew everything about her small town, until her 30th birthday revealed dangerous secrets, ancient magic, and Luca Wolfe, the man who’s either her salvation or her destruction.

Hope and Jackson’s story for the Lake House Love series The story readers have been begging for! Hope and Jackson have been through hell, but sometimes the deepest wounds create the strongest love. Get ready for a second-chance romance that will break your heart before it heals it.

Second book in the new Billionaire Blackstone series Think you know billionaire romance? Meet the Blackstones, where Southern charm meets ruthless ambition, bourbon flows like secrets, and love is the most dangerous game of all.

Leave a comment and let me know which book you chose and why. I love hearing your thoughts!

Dear Passion Pursuers,

Speaking of steamy scenes and romantic tension, I have some exciting updates about my upcoming and released books that’ll give you even more heat to look forward to—starting with my first audiobook! I need to do better about shouting about exciting news. I mentioned this before, but since I haven’t done this awesome production justice with promoting my first audiobook. I’d be remiss not to give it the attention it deserves. Especially since Sybil Anderson did such an amazing job narrating it. Her tone and inflection are amazing for all the characters, not just Lilith and Asher. For those who’ve been asking to enjoy Lilith and Asher’s lakeside romance on the go, you can find the Making Waves audiobook at all major retailers like Audible, but also through Libby and Hoopla (and if your library doesn’t have it, just make the request on the app).

“Between chapters, I wanted to share a peek at what’s brewing in my creative universe.

I mentioned book two of the Billionaire Blackstone series in the poll because book one, The Bourbon Bet, is nearly ready for you! It’s been through developmental editing (love the improvements!), and is now with my line editor. The cover is gorgeous. I went with a watercolor style that perfectly captures the Southern small-town bourbon empire vibe. I’m still perfecting the blurb, but I should have everything ready to share next month.

My other two projects: The Little Red Riding Hood retelling and Hope and Jackson’s story are neck and neck. Both are outlined with about ten chapters written.

That’s exactly why I need your help with the poll! I want to write them all simultaneously, but that’s impossible (trust me, I’ve tried). So what would you rather read first? The paranormal retelling with morally gray Luca Wolfe? Hope and Jackson’s second-chance love story about forgiveness? Or are you dying to meet the complicated, sexy Blackstone siblings whose lives aren’t nearly as smooth as their expensive bourbon?

All this talk about books and writing has me eager to connect with fellow romance lovers face-to-face! I’m thrilled to announce I’ll be meeting readers in person this summer at two fantastic local events.
