Mistresses

This series is only connected through theme. In 2007 one of the popular romance tropes was the mistress. I loved the movie Gigi growing up. Do you know it? It seemed so romantic when I watched it and a part of me wanted to be a rich man’s mistress when I was about twelve. I do still like that fantasy and had a lot of fun writing these books.

Of course being a modern and independent woman I wasn’t full on writing about mistresses. In the first book Make Believe Mistress, Grace has a secret life as an erotica writer and plays out the mistress fantasy there. The second book Six Month Mistress is a reunion love story, years ago Bella had agreed to be Jeremy’s mistress for six-months now he’s back and ready to collect. The last book High Society Mistress where Tempest is refused a promotion by her father because she’s a girl so she goes to his rival and offers to be his mistress.

These books were a lot of fun to write, I hadn’t ever thought to write a series that was just one trope so exploring the same trope from different angles was interesting.

Liberty Investigations & Savage Seven

Holiday Heat

Destination Wedding

Nick Williams is marrying Adler Osbourne daughter of legendary country music singer Toby Osbourne.

Meeting, catching and marrying Nick is her ticket to respectability or so she thinks until a secret is revealed during their Nantucket Destination Wedding.

Adler won’t cancel her wedding. Nick is shaken. They love each other but this is something they are both going to have to deal with.

Texas Cattlemans Club

I love every time I get invited to write another Texas Cattleman’s Club book. It’s so much fun to work with other authors and create an on-going series.

I’ve been lucky enough to work on several over the course of my career and I love how much the TCC has changed. I remember when they added their first women members to the club! So much fun.

One Night

Have you ever noticed how falling in love isn’t something we can control? When I was a girl I used to imagine who I’d fall in love with and the reality was very different. Sometimes I think we tell ourselves we want one thing maybe because of who we hang out with or because of how we are raised but then one day someone walks into your life and bam! you start falling in love.

I think that most of us don’t start out trying to deceive or hurt someone by keeping secrets but there comes a point when the secret takes over your life. My dad (the smartest man I know) always says that once you start lying you have to keep lying. There’s no way back to the truth. In real life as well as in fiction this is so true.

I loved writing this series set in the fictional Hill Country town of Cole's Hill, which I had used in pervious series such as the Wild Carruthers and my Space Cowboys. The One Night series features the Velasquez brothers and each of the stories play off the others. It’s one of my favorite series that I’ve written.

Corbyn Sisters

From the moment I was asked to write a series set in Last Stand I had two families in mind the Corbyns who I saw as a fictionalized version of my sisters and I and the Delaneys descendants of outlaws who who lived on the outskirts of town.

Amelia’s book is part of the Dangerous Delaneys. Amelia Corbyn and Cal Delaney were high school lovers until life took them in opposite directions. Finn Delaney couldn’t get away from Last Stand fast enough but when he meets Lancey Maverick he’s ready to stay. Braden Delaney has done his best to make the family respectable but Lea Dunwoody makes him want to loosen up!

Emma Corbyn is all books and Red Aldean is better with his hands—something Emma appreciates! When Jock Rossi comes to town with his televised cooking show Delilah Corbyn can’t resist challenging him and proving that even though she’s small town she can stand toe-to-toe with him. The other Corbyn is Amelia’s half-brother J.T. Williams who comes to town, lying about who he is to meet his sister for the first time. He falls in love with her best-friend Zara Mitchell which complicates matters. I loved writing these books.

Jokers Wild

Two men who have never made Las Vegas their playground learn that not every winning hand wins the greatest prize, that the real magic in the world isn’t just an illusion and that not every thrill comes from stunts.

Have you ever taken a gamble on anything? I have to be honest and tell you that I’m usually not a risk taker. I have done things that have given me that tingly feeling in the pit of my stomach but I always justify it as doing it for someone else.

Like one time I jumped off these rocks into a bottomless spring because I could tell my kids wanted to do it and were afraid to go. I climbed up there and I have to tell you I stood there at the edge, looking down and I wasn’t sure I could do it. Even though I saw other people make the jump and I knew it was safe, there is something about stepping off solid ground and just falling that is so intimidating, but I did it.

The Jokers Wild series is about taking risks and finding a strength you didn’t know you had. I had fun writing this series.

The Wild Caruthers

The Wild Caruthers bachelors are a spin off from His Seduction Game Plan. Hunter is the second youngest of the Caruthers and a bad boy whose reputation in college led to him being questioned in a co-eds murder.  He was never charged and went on to have a career as a wide receiver in the NFL but that reputation stayed with him until finally his name was cleared.  Nate Caruthers is the eldest of the boys and the one who stayed in Cole's Hill and runs Rockin' C Enterprises.  Derek Caruthers was always too smart for his own good and went off to college (pre-med) at fourteen and then med school.  He now a cardiologist with a reputation for being the best.  The last Caruthers brother is Ethan. The one who seems the most tame on the surface but hides a wildness the others can't even guess at.  He's an attorney and in love with his best-friend's ex-girlfriend.

Each of the books in the series stands alone, you don’t have to read the entire series or read them in order.  Unless you want to!
