Watch the Replay of My Chat with Karen Booth and Get Signed Books.

Earlier this week, I had the honor of chatting with friend and fellow author Karen Booth during her release day celebration. Flyleaf Books in Chapel Hill hosted the chat. We talked about her new grumpy /sunshine romance Swap and Smell the Roses, the tough business of being an author, and a lot more.

Fun, Food & Music in Atlanta + A Taste of Never the Right Time + Small-Town Shenanigans

How is the weather in your part of the world? I stepped out of my editing cave to discover that it was a sizzling 91° F. That shouldn’t be surprising since April was the hottest April globallyever recorded. But since I’m a mild weather loving kind of girl, the intense heat on the second day of May was a bit of shock to my system.

What about you? What’s your favorite time of year?

Last Saturday, I had the privilege of giving a session at a local reader conference on Enhance You...

New series coming March 15th: The Love & Music Suite!

I’m so excited to be launching my first indie series: The Love & Music Suite. The series follows alumni of a performing arts high school (think FAME) in Atlanta, GA. The series finds the group trying to save their old school from the chopping block, renewing past friendships, and reigniting old flames. (Wee for second chance romances!) The series kicks off on Friday, March 15th with SPIN THE BLOCK.

Ward—a celebrity DJ—and Karris—a former pop sensation—are high school exes who once fake-dated...

Rilzy Adams + Beach Reads + Adventures in Wilmington

In Case You Missed It: Check out my chat with Rilzy Adams

I thoroughly enjoyed my recent chat with readers and Rilzy Adams—author of GO DEEP. It was such an honest, authentic conversation. She talked about how she got started writing, the challenges she’s faced, what she wishes she’d known at the outset of her career, and the issues she still struggles with as a creative.

I felt seen as an author dealing with many of the same struggles. Rilzy shared some invaluable insight, and we l...

Blending My Passions: Books, Food, and Music

A small piece of me surfaces in every story that I write. And since books, food, and music are a few of the things I am passionate about, music and food often show up in the stories I write.

One of my favorite scenes in Engaging the Enemy is where Kayleigh teaches Parker—her former friend and fake fiancé—how to dance with Marvin Gaye crooning “I Want You” in the background. In The Billionaire’s Legacy, Benji and Sloane dance to L.T.D.’s “Love Ballad” at Blake and Savannah’s wedding. And in A ...

Fake Relationships, Anyone? + A VALENTINE FOR CHRISTMAS ARCs

Happy Friday, all!

I’m so excited to share that my fake relationship romance set in Atlanta, Georgia—TWICE FAKED—is now live! When it comes to romance tropes…who can settle on just one favorite? Personally, I have a Top 5. Fake relationships and second chance romance are solidly among them. My new novella, TWICE FAKED—set in Atlanta, Georgia among a group of former high school friends all currently in some area of the music industry—delivers both.
