This or That: Kiss or Nibble

One of the hardest things about writing romance is writing the love scene especially after nearly 80 books (Hard to imagine that it’s so many but it is!) Why is it hard? Well, if you have to decide just how intense it should be for your readers and more importantly, for the characters in your story. Plus, you want it to be different and not the same as something you’ve done before. You also want it to be right for your characters. When I start to write the scene, I often think, will it begin with the kiss or the nibble on the neck? What do you think? P.S. If you like stories with a little bit of spice, you can read three of the novellas in the Dark Seduction series for free on Kindle Unlimited or specially priced at 99 cents at https://amzn.to/3AxbMgb.

Fairytale Wedding or Fab Honeymoon

With money being tight nowadays, it’s hard for young couples to have both an amazing wedding as well as an over-the-top honeymoon. Some people have to choose only one of them. I think if you asked Emma from NEVER A BRIDE whether she would pick a fairytale wedding or a fab honeymoon she would choose wedding since she is a wedding planner. Although she’s one who doesn’t believe in happily-ever-after. What about you? If you could choose only one, would it be the wedding or the honeymoon? P.S. The AT THE SHORE box set is now specially priced at 99 cents for all three books! Grab your copy today at https://amzn.to/4cyhE6r.

This or That: Cook or Clean?

When my husband and I were both working, we had one rule: Whoever cooked, the other person cleaned. Believe it or not, that sometimes resulted in a rush to cook since we both seemed to hate the clean-up so much (especially when hubby cooked!) What about you? Would you rather cook or clean? P.S.

This or That-Cowboys or Military Heroes

Good morning! It’s time for another this or that! This time it’s about romance novel heroes, namely cowboys or military heroes. I’ve written many books with military heroes, but cowboys not so much. In fact, the closest I’ve come to a cowboy hero is police officer Jackson Whitaker from COLD CASE REOPENED. You’ll get to see more of Jax (and heroine Rhea) in the first book of the Colorado-based South Beach Security spinoff (Late 2025). But for now, let me know who you like to see more of in your romance novels: Cowboys or Military heroes? P.S. – If you love military heroes, the new SBS K-9 series is full of them. If you like them sexier, check out the steamy Take a Chance military romance series at https://amzn.to/45XSBb8.

Morning Person or Night Owl?

If you ask me whether I’m a Morning Person or a Night Owl, my answer is “Yes.” Now that I no longer have a day job, I’m in what I used to call my weekend mode, namely, staying up to midnight or later while still getting up at 6:30ish to write. It’s different than my old work mode where I’d be asleep by 10 and up at 5. What about you? Do you like to rise with the sun and get to it or sleep in and stay up late at night? P.S.-The one person who isn’t a morning owl is Southern vampire Ryder Latimer from DARKNESS CALLS. He’s one of my all-time favorite characters and if you haven’t had a chance to read this vampire romantic suspense, now’s your chance! It’s specially priced at 99 cents.
