Hello lovelies!

The sun has been shining ferociously on my poor un air-conditioned head and I’ve been boiling like a steamed pudding. I much prefer the cold weather, but it is nice to see the sun.

My son’s over from California, which is lovely, and my daughter’s finished college, and is all set for university in September. She has an unconditional offer and only has to pass to get the place so we’re pretty confident she’s got in. It will be the first time we won’t have a child in the house for 36 years!

Book news: I attended the Self-Publishing Live! Show in London last month which was enjoyable and inspiring. In August I’m heading up to Stranraer in Scotland for a book signing in case any of you happen to be around there! (August 22^nd— see below.)

I’m busy writing the next Miss Morton book, the second Regency historical for Kensington, a new Millcastle book, and— I’m just finishing up a contemporary romance that I’ve been fiddling around with for years. I’ll probably publish that one before the end of the year. Yes, I do like to keep busy. :)

Wishing you all a very pleasant and not at all hot summer,

Buying direct from me is the best way to support my writing and ensure that it's the author that gets a fair share of the money for their work, rather than giving a hefty cut to the gigantic mega corporations - you know who I mean!

Uncovering Lily: A Steamy Billionaire Romantic Suspense

A Kidnapped College Student

While studying abroad, I was drugged, kidnapped, and imprisoned . . . in a Hong Kong brothel. After several failed attempts to escape, I know my time is running out. My innocence is about to be sold to the highest bidder.

A Billionaire CEO

My plan was to meet an investor at the upscale brothel, and immediately return to Boston. That was until I uncovered Lily. I recognized her instantly, but she had no memory of me.

Now I only have one night to claim her and rescue her from her captors.

Will one night be enough for him to win her trust, to rescue her?​
