I live in sunny Florida, where I write steamy, searing stories about complicated good guys and the bold women who love them. I spend as much time as possible in my comfy red chair, reading great books and drinking good, strong coffee. Beach reading with a good, strong margarita works just as well. 😛 Love stories of all kinds are my favorite, but I also like fantasy and literary fiction. Please reach out to me with your comments and questions on my stories. I'd love to hear from you! United States.
