COUNTING ON COLE releases in less than two weeks (on 4/28/20!), and I wanted to take a little time today in order to talk about the setting for the book. You see, COUNTING ON COLE takes place in New York City.
I love New York. My son is a theater kid and seeing shows on Broadway is one of our favorite things to do together. We’d actually been saving up because we’d planned to visit New York this June so that we could catch Beetlejuice before the show closed on Broadway. Of course, plans have changed. ๐
Iโd long wanted to write a book that incorporated the bright lights of Broadway and the thrill of the big cityโฆ (PsstโฆSlight spoiler: The heroine in COUNTING ON COLE is a dance choreographer.)
But then the pandemic hit us all. And I wondered if maybe I should change the setting for COUNTING ON COLE. Onlyโฆyou know what? It didnโt seem right to change it. I love New York. I love the people. I love the energy. So I kept my setting, and I imagined New York as it had been the last time I was thereโthe way I canโt wait for it to be again. Big, beautiful, and bustling.
My prayers are with everyone fighting the pandemic. I hope we all stay safe and healthy, and one day soon, I hope our world is โnormalโ againโฆand until then, Iโll visit my favorite places in books.
As we head into the weekend, I wanted to wish everyone a safe and happy holiday! ๐ฐ
AndโฆI have another COUNTING ON COLE tease for you. Friday teaser time!
Cole has appeared in several of my “Wilde Ways” books, and I’m so excited that he will finally have his own story. You’ll learn all his secrets (he’s got lots!), and you’ll find out just how far Cole will go to reclaim the woman he lost two years ago.
I do love a second chance romance! And I hope you do, too! โค๏ธ

More sale news!!! ๐ For the month of April, Amazon Montlake has put my romantic suspense, FEAR FOR ME, on sale for just .99! This sale is currently running in the US and in Canada. Because this is an Amazon Montlake publication, the title is also included in Kindle Unlimited.
A shared passion for justice first brought Baton Rouge district attorney Lauren Chandler and US marshal Anthony Ross togetherโwhen each played their part in bringing down the infamous Bayou Butcher. The sparks flying between the two made it clear they werenโt just a legal dream team. Then desire had to make way for duty, and what they had was done. But it would never be over.
Five years later, itโs none other than the Butcher who gets things started again, when his shocking jailbreak reunites the lawyer and the lawmanโฆand reignites their love. But this time, the pair is in danger of being permanently partedโby a killer with revenge on his mind, and Lauren on the top of his list. As a new wave of terror sweeps through the streets and swamps of Baton Rouge, one man will pit his boundless passion against anotherโs relentless hate, for the life of the woman who obsesses them both.
Stay tuned! I have more sales coming at all retailers (this one is limited to only Amazon because it is an Amazon Montlake publication). I have lots of surprises in store for readers this month.

Looking for a distraction? I’ve got just the sexy super solider for you. ๐
I’ve recently given my romantic suspense, NEVER LET GO, a spiffy new cover, and I have made it FREE for readers. So if you’ve been looking for a book to read, I have you covered!
(I’m working to get the title listed for free at Amazon, too, and when that happens, I will be back with an update.)
NEVER LET GO was originally released in September of 2017. It’s the first book in my “Lazarus Rising” series. This is a darker, more intense romantic suspense than my “Wilde Ways” series. And the Lazarus books also contain really hot super soldiers. Have I mentioned those already? ๐
