My Spanish expert, Elii Vela from Book's Minion Blog, has this to say about Blocked : "The relationship between Lucia and Dane was very sweet and very sexy. The end of the story was fabulous, made ​​me scream with excitement because it was the perfect ending." Leading up to the release, I'll share excerpts each week. This is from chapter one. ~*~ “Hey, Ramirez,” a friendly voice said, and I turned to find a welcoming smile. “I’m Maddie Brooks.” “The team captain?” “That’s me.” We were about the same height — six-foot-two — and she studied me for a moment. “You’re obviously a strong side hitter.” I cocked my head. “How’d you know?” “You look strong as hell, girl.” She rubbed my right shoulder. I felt twenty pounds lighter all of a sudden. Th...

Thanks to Mary and Kathy for hosting this hop! I love America. One thing that makes America great is FREEDOM. Not only freedom to read, but freedom to voice dissenting views on politics and religion. Americans' fierce political divide inspired my fifth novel Blocked . It's a college volleyball romance between two individuals with polar opposite philosophies about the way the world should work: College freshman Lucia Ramirez has a secret crush on Dane Monroe. He’s a tall drink of water — blond, brash, and one hell of a volleyball player. Hijole . Lucia hopes her volleyball scholarship to his school will make him notice her. Too bad what’s noticeable is Dane’s obvious hatred for Lucia. Her family’s politics contradict everything he stands for. And politics are front and center in both their families. Dane’s mother is about to face Lucia’s father in the race for US President. When Secret Service throws them together, Dane can’t deny his frustrating attraction to Lucia’...

Only four more days until release day of On Best Behavior ! It's exciting to finish my first series. Earlier I posted the first part of a scene that we cut in the editing process. Here's part two of Sophie and Grant in the church, planning their wedding: “You know what I was thinking about during our little moment of silence?” Grant asked. Sophie shook her head. “Well, I imagined you in your wedding dress, at the end of the aisle.” He gestured toward the altar. “I’m standing right there waiting for you, fidgeting with the flower on my lapel, and when I see you, you look so stunning. Radiant and exquisite.” She glanced at the entrance of the sanctuary and then back at him. “Mmm, I can see it too. You’re standing by Pastor Tom, looking so McSailoricious in a tux. I want to tear down the aisle, run into your arms.” He continued the little fantasy. “You try to run, but…your father, he slows you down. He walks you to me—” he flinched as if watching a horror flick “—but then ...
