Touch of Temptation: Hidden Desires in Motion
Every Private Encounters story starts with a spark I can’t ignore. For Touch of Temptation, it was a single question: What happens when the quiet dissatisfaction of a carefully constructed life collides with a desire that refuses to stay hidden?
Marcus Hale arrived fully formed in my mind — a forty-one-year-old tech executive who’s built everything except the connection he secretly craves. Writing him meant peeling back layers of routine and ambition to reveal the man underneath: restless, yearning, and terrified of what he might find if he lets go. Then came Caleb Montrose, a charismatic twenty-five-year-old trainer who carries his own quiet confidence. Their chemistry was electric from the first scene I wrote, a slow burn that surprised even me with its intensity. Drafting their late-night sessions, the push and pull of boundaries and temptation, felt like holding my breath — because I knew once they crossed the line, nothing in their lives (or in this series) would ever be the same.
Seattle’s private studios and Marcus’s sleek home gym became my stage for exploring identity, desire, and the cost of authenticity. Every rep, every glance, every whispered confession reminded me why I write these stories: to capture the moment someone dares to want more, even when the world is watching. Touch of Temptation is out now, and I can’t wait for you to meet Marcus and Caleb — two men who discover that the most dangerous thing about forbidden attraction isn’t the desire itself, but what happens when it’s exposed.

Beneath the Surface: Writing Invisible Foundations
Every story in the Private Encounters world begins with a question that won’t let me go. With Invisible Foundations, that question was simple but powerful: What drives someone to build a life that looks perfect on the outside — even when it means starting from nothing and rewriting the rules?
Following Grayson back to his early days was like stepping into the quiet before the storm. I’d already lived with him as the confident, calculating man readers meet in Unforgettable Encounter, but here I had to strip him down to raw ambition and the stubborn belief that he could climb from rags to riches. Writing those moments — late nights of study, the sting of rejection letters, the quiet victories — reminded me how fragile and fierce the beginning of any dream can feel.
This novella also took me outside my own backyard. Parts of Grayson’s journey unfold against the backdrop of London’s business district — a place I researched with the same curiosity he brings to every opportunity. I spent hours exploring the city’s rhythms, its sleek glass towers standing shoulder to shoulder with centuries-old stone. Even from Seattle, I could almost hear the hum of the Thames at night. Learning the nuances of that setting — how ambition and tradition coexist — added a texture I loved sinking into.
Writing Invisible Foundations was a reminder of why I tell these stories in the first place: to explore the choices that shape us, the quiet courage it takes to become who we’re meant to be, and the magnetic pull of desire that refuses to be ignored. Invisible Foundations releases this Wednesday, and I can’t wait for you to see the layers beneath Grayson’s sharp suit and calm smile.

I just put the final touches on Lost in Translation — and wow, this one took me on a ride I won’t forget anytime soon.
Connor Byrne, a restless travel journalist, and Hiroshi Sato, a quiet, guarded architect, meet in the heart of Tokyo under the guise of a cultural liaison arrangement. What starts as playful banter and cultural clashes turns into something much deeper — a romance that builds in the neon glow of Shinjuku nights and the hush of temple gardens.
I loved exploring the push and pull between Connor’s open warmth and Hiroshi’s restraint. Their chemistry surprised me, simmering until it finally cracked through Hiroshi’s walls in ways that felt both tender and explosive. Writing Tokyo as more than just a backdrop — making the city a living, breathing part of their story — was a dream come true.
This story is all about the moments that don’t need translation: a lingering glance, a hand caught just a second too long, the silent question of will you stay?

I just wrapped up Burning Boundaries: A Love-Hate Connection, and wow — this one was a ride.
Zach and Kian weren’t supposed to collide like this. An article assignment turns into stolen glances, heated words, and an undeniable pull neither of them is prepared for. The tension between them is raw, unpolished, and electric — the kind of chemistry that doesn’t politely ask to be ignored, it kicks the door in.
What I love most about this story is the way their connection balances on that razor-thin edge between want and denial. The moments of vulnerability, the way both men fight their own instincts, and the sheer intensity of their first real sparks — it all feels like the perfect setup for something bigger still to come.
This isn’t just a taste of passion, it’s the groundwork for a storm. And writing it reminded me why I love exploring these “love-hate” connections: because they ask hard questions about desire, identity, and what we’re willing to risk for someone who shakes us to our core.
I can’t wait to share more of Zach and Kian’s journey soon.
