WHEN HE LOVES is here! It’s the official release day for my new romantic suspense…

He’s been in love with her since the day they met.

Love at first sight? Sure, you can call it that. Love, obsession, whatever. All Nash Quinn knows is that from the instant he met Delaney Daniels, he fell for her. Hard. Completely. And now…she’s marrying someone else. A man who most people believe to be a prince charming, but Nash knows the guy is a real nightmare, and there is no way–no way–that he can let his Delaney go through with the marriage. Because as soon as she’s married, she’ll be dead.

So he has to kidnap the bride.

It’s a dirty job, but someone has to do it. Nash rides in on his motorcycle, and when the priest asks if anyone objects, Nash steals the bride. Only…Delaney comes far too willingly. She jumps on the back of his motorcycle, and they ride off into the night…even as the groom gives chase.

She’s in trouble, and the man who once shattered her heart is the only one who can help her.

Right before her wedding, Delaney found out just how dangerous and evil her groom-to-be truly was. Desperate and afraid, she’d sent a frantic text to her former best friend, Agnes, hoping for some miracle. She never expected her miracle to come in the form of Agnes’s brother Nash–gorgeous, big, powerful Nash. He storms the wedding and carries her out into the night. Yes, she’s heard the whispers about him. She even has secretly suspected that he might work for the government, but when she learns that big, bad Nash is actually a spy…A spy who just saved her from certain death…everything changes.

The CIA wants to use her. Nash just wants to protect her.

He has to hide Delaney. Has to whisk her away and stay close to her every moment. But emotions and needs that Nash has held in check for far too long are pushing past his control. This is finally his chance–his chance to have Delaney, and Nash is not going to let her slip through his fingers again.

He’ll be the one to put a ring on her finger. And to set a trap for her ex.

Another wedding? Sure, why not? When the CIA wants to nab her ex, Delaney is all-in on the plan. Even if that plan means traveling to Vegas, fake marrying the hot and brooding Nash, and risking everything to bring down a killer. She can do this…but, she may just lose her heart to Nash along the way. Her heart, and potentially, her life.

Author’s Note: He’s stealing a bride, and he will not give her back. Nash has been in love with Delaney for years, and he is not going to let anyone hurt her. He’ll step from the shadows, he’ll protect her, and he’ll finally claim the woman who owns his soul. If anyone tries to get in his way, he’ll show them just how dangerous a real protector can truly be…

Time for a “Writer Wednesday” Talk: And It’s About AI…

I have a goal of trying to do a “Writer Wednesday” post each week. Will I always achieve this goal? Heck, no, but I’m trying! And this week, I want to talk to you about AI. To be very frank, I hate AI in the writing world. I hate that authors had their work stolen so that machines would be trained with our stories. I hate that there are tons of lawsuits happening right now as writers have to fight for their rights, and I hate that readers are being mislead by certain individuals–people who just straight up use AI to generate stories and then release them to the public.

So, let me just promise this–when you read a book from me, a real human wrote it. Love it or hate it, the story is mine. My characters, my humor, my twisted mind–it’s all me. Any errors that you find in the novel? Those are mine, too. And, yes, alas, I can proof a book ten times–and my lovely editor will proof it, too, and then the novel will release…and somehow, a very persistent typo will find a way to survive.

But, seriously, I just want you to know that the books I release are from my heart. I have been writing fulltime for over twenty years. I write pretty much every single day, and I have a goal of usually writing at least 4k a day. That’s just my schedule, and it’s what works for me. If I am not writing a book, I feel lost. Books have always been my comfort and my connection. They give me purpose, and they make me happy. I feel incredibly grateful and blessed to be able to spend my days creating stories. (Thank you very, very much for reading my books. I truly appreciate you more than I can say!)

Some people on Threads and other social media are currently suggesting that if a book has em dashes or if there is an ellipsis, then those are signs the story is AI. Oh, no. Not the case. The em dash and the ellipsis and the F word have been three of my very best friends since my first book came out way back in 2005, and if you’ve read me over the years, then you know how much I enjoy those things. The reason you will see em dashes and the ellipsis in AI books is because the AI systems were trained on the stolen work of real authors. Authors like me. Because, yes, my work was used without my permission to train AI. A great deal of my work, and it saddens me each day.

So, very long post but…it’s me. If I am releasing a book, then I want you to feel one hundred percent comfortable knowing that an actual human wrote the story. That is a promise I am making to you. My books, my words, my heart. And I hope that you will enjoy the stories. I hope that very much.

The countdown is on!! Just two days until the release of my new romantic suspense, WHEN HE LOVES. 😍

She needed a miracle. Delaney Daniels just never expected the miracle to come in the form of her gorgeous ex…

Officially just ONE WEEK to go until the 03.26.26 release of WHEN HE LOVES!

“You are my life.” His words stopped her. “And I’ll be the bad guy a million times over if it means that you get to keep living and that you’re safe. I will sacrifice my own happiness again and again because that is nothing compared to the darkness I’d feel if I didn’t know that you were alive somewhere in this world.”

Friday the 13th doesn’t *have* to be a bad day. In fact, it can be filled with all sorts of fun things like…a SUPER S*A*L*E on your favorite hitman.

Right now, you can snag the WHEN HE HUNTS ebook for just .99!! I call that Friday the 13th FUN!!!!!

She’s a dead woman walking.

Luna Black knows that she’s being hunted. The price on her head is astronomical. She was in the wrong place at the wrong time, and she saw some very dangerous people doing some very, very bad things. Now she needs to reach the Feds, stat, and get a new identity and a new life. Because her old life? Definitely over.

It’s not personal. She’s just a job.

Ronan Walker lives in the shadows. His job? Simple—to deliver death. And the latest hit has him tracking down the very elusive and unpredictable Luna. But he’s not the only hitman on her trail. Luna has valuable intel. The kind of intel that can never see the light of a courtroom.  When the other hunters swarm in on her, Ronan has no choice but to intervene.

Death wasn’t supposed to be so…dead sexy.

After he defeated the group trying to abduct her, Luna expected to die by the gorgeous stranger’s hands.  Even as he kissed her, Luna was sure that the tall, dark, and fierce predator would kill her. Only…she woke up, very much still alive, and handcuffed to his bed. Before she can even scream, he offers her a deal…protection, but for a price.

Is he a hitman with a heart?

No, he’s not. Not even close. His heart never gets involved in a job. Ronan faked Luna’s death, and now he has to keep her with him in the shadows until the Feds are ready to use her in order to bring down a massive criminal ring.  The problem? He’s not exactly used to sharing close quarters with anyone. Especially not someone like Luna…a woman who pushes him to the edge and makes him want to let go of the fierce control that he’s kept in place for years.

On the run. Hiding in the shadows. Pretending to be a couple in love…

Sometimes, it’s easy to pretend. To act like lovers. But what happens when the pretending starts to feel all too real? The longer they are together, the more Luna realizes there is so much more to Ronan than meets the eye. He protects her, he defends her from every threat, and she…just might be falling hard for the hitman who swears he can never love…

The story of her life. To fall for the man who delivers death.

Author’s Note: Ronan deals with death. He’s worked undercover as a hitman for years, only seeing the darkest side of life. Then he meets Luna.  A woman named for the moon but who feels like sunlight in his arms. No way should he want her as badly as he does. No way should he start to think of Luna as his. But…he does. And anyone coming after Luna will find that Ronan will take “protecting and defending” her to a whole, new level. No one else will touch Luna, no one will hurt her, and he will deliver death to anyone who tries to take her from him.
