So, this is happening...

Y'all, we are only two TINY little weeks away from The Grifter hitting e-readers!



Here's everything you need to be ready for this single dad, second chance romantic suspense:

1. Add it to your Goodreads TBR so other readers can see it and check it out, too! You can do that right here: The Grifter

2. Vote for The Grifter for October's Most Anticipated Romance! It's on the book page.



3. Sign up for the EXCLUSIVE preorder extended epilogue. For those of you who have read my Remington Medical and Intelligence Unit books, you know that I always include a short epilogue at the end of each standalone. This epilogue highlights the current couple a little, but mostly focuses as a lead-in to the next book.

But because some of you asked for a longer epilogue featuring the current couple, I wanted to offer a special something for those of you who preorder. ***If you want an exclusive bonus scene featuring Frankie, Shawn, and Isla (Shawn's daughter), make sure you DON'T MISS THIS.***

This scene won't be released with the book, and it won't be available anywhere else (EVER) other than here, as a preorder special. You must sign up on my website to get it!

So, tell me! Who's excited for this sexy single-dad romance?!

I am a writer. I tell people lies for money.

A few readers have asked me how I choose who gets a book/what order the stories go in. The truth is, I give this A LOT of thought and most of it is planned out very far in advance. When I decided to write the Remington series back in 2016 (I KNOW!) I knew a few things:


1. I wanted a lot of books, so I'd have to break things into "sub series" (Station Seventeen, Remington Medical, Intelligence Unit, and Rescue Squad)


2. That I'd have to plan the couples in advance otherwise I wouldn't be able to leave y'all "Easter eggs" -- those fun little hints in each book that allude to future couples.


So I planned every single one of the Remington couples in 2016 when I mapped the series. For those of you with REALLY good eyes, you'll see/remember that waaaaayyyyy back in Deep Check, there's a snippet where Addison goes off to flirt with the hockey players on Finn's team...and Ryan gets grumpy about it 🥰 I knew WAY back then that they'd be a couple.


I do sometimes add characters/couples who weren't in the original "plan". Jo and Sawyer are a perfect example. Neither of them were ever in the series outline, but once I started writing The Grifter and Jo became a bigger character than I thought she might, I realized she could use a good HEA. I'd been asked to participate in a SUPER fun newsletter builder project, which required a new story, so I wrote Sawyer into the epilogue for The Grifter, and that was that! The Renegade was born!


There's a longer story along this line that has to do with Xander, but I'm saving it for another post. Suffice it to say he lived in my head rent-free for a LONG TIME before he got his story, though.


So tell me... which couple is your favorite match? Can you think of any (spoiler-free) "Easter eggs" you've seen that hint at future couples? (PSSST-- there is going to be a BIG Easter egg in the exclusive epilogue to The Rogue. HUGE) And do you have any other questions for our behind-the-scenes posts this month?
