New Release! :)
Newly released (7/30) is the first in my Sweet Redemption series: Playing With Fire.
A departure from the bittersweet Dangerous Secrets series which centers on more gritty, gut-wrenching themes and is more serious in tone, the Sweet Redemption stories are lighter, sexier, more romantic tales of love and personal discoveries.
Really excited about this one, and can't wait to see what the public makes of it!
I'm working on a few more of this type...no release date for those yet.
The pattern has been about every two months so far (A Tangled Web first released 3/29, Chrysalis 6/1, the latest 7/30), so maybe the next one around 10/1!
Anyway, Playing With Fire is now available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble and other channels.
Enjoy!

Holiday Bundle: Triple Feature Release
Just released: a bundle of the first books in all my current series!
It includes:
- Playing With Fire (Sweet Redemption)
- A Tangled Web (Dangerous Secrets)
- Trapped (Bite-Sized Romance)
The bundle gives all three for half of what they go for separately. Currently available on Amazon and ARe! :)
And coming soon, the first in a new series: A Christmas Miracle.
I'm also still working on the piece I mentioned a few posts back, the one that was supposed to be the third in the Dangerous Secrets series, but is now looking more like the next in the Bite-Sized Romance series since it has a sci-fi aspect.
Truthfully, I don't know what the heck it is right now--it's still a lump of words I'm not sure how to form.
As for the other followups, next up in Sweet Redemption is Liz's story (Janet's best friend in Playing With Fire), and the next part to Trapped is coming soon.
Chrysalis may or may not get a follow-up since it now has an epilogue...depends on how much time I get--I have all sorts of things in the works!

NEW RELEASE! Contemporary Holiday Romance
It's here!
A Christmas Miracle:
The first in my new Holiday Hunks series!
SYNOPSIS: Brenda's holiday season is looking pretty bleak.
She hasn't spoken to her half-sister Rachel--the only family she has left--since Rachel stole her boyfriend, and Brenda hasn't dated since.
Now Rachel and the man Brenda once thought she’d marry herself are expecting a child, and Rachel keeps inviting her over to have dinner with them.
Brenda has already turned down their Thanksgiving invitation, but she doesn't want to spend Christmas alone, yet she’s not sure she’s gotten over her ex enough to face the two of them as a couple.
But then she collides with a handsome stranger in a coffee shop and everything changes.
Alex has given up on family Christmases and miracles after watching his family slowly get wiped out, his brother the latest casualty.
He has settled on living life playing the field, not trusting his luck with having people he cares about stick around, but a chance encounter with a sad-looking beauty in a coffee shop arouses his curiosity.
To make up for the coffee he spilled on her, Brenda asks the handsome stranger one favor: to accompany her to her sister’s Christmas dinner.
He agrees on one condition: that she go out with him in the meantime until then.
They both agree to end their arrangement after the Christmas dinner is over, despite mutual growing feelings of wanting more.
Brenda is determined to keep her heart protected, but can Alex hold on to the scared beauty for longer than the holiday season?
Now available on all channels!
Also, someone managed to add the book to GR before me, which is a first! :)(or does GR automatically pull in new releases from Amazon now?) UPDATE: Nope, first person to rate it added it in order to rate it. 1/8/14 note: Wait, did they? My latest release (Leap of Faith) is suddenly up, and I had no intention of adding it...

COMING SOON: Leap of Faith
I mentioned a piece I was working on that looked like it would belong to the Dangerous Secrets series in a previous blog post.
Turns out, although technically new adult since it involves 18-24-year-olds (takes place in college), and despite a secret being involved, it's not quite the flavor of the novel and novella in the Dangerous Secrets series; this new piece is more sweet, less bitter. Lighter.
The secret just isn't all that dangerous.
Anyway, it's called "Leap of Faith," and it's a novelette--about 14000 words. As a result of the size, I am allocating it to the Bite-Sized Romance series (the other book in this series, Trapped, is about 18000 words. Although *NEWS FLASH* extended edition is on the way this month!). Plus, this new work has a sci-fi aspect like Trapped, only this time, telepathy is involved instead of zombies.
I pretty much completed "Leap of Faith" days ago, yet for some reason, I am just sitting on it; I haven't felt the need to make it available right away.
I will release it sometime this month though--by the 10th or so. So look out for it! And, as always, let me know what you think. I love getting reader emails.
Until later,
R.F.
ETA- "Leap of Faith" is now available, as of 1/8/14. :)

NEW RELEASE: A Valentine's Day Surprise
A Holiday Hunks novella!
SYNOPSIS:
When Alicia’s cousin asks her to fill in for her last minute on a babysitting job, Alicia expects nothing more than to be inconvenienced for a few hours.
It’s Valentine’s Day, and she is shamefully available to sub in, so she agrees.
What she doesn’t expect, as she shows up at the client’s door, is a handsome, sad-looking father, and a quiet, but endearing four-year-old.
And she certainly doesn’t expect to want to see them again once the gig is done.
Alicia puts the jarring night out of her mind as best as she can, but her services are unexpectedly called for once more, and she starts suspecting the client wants her for far more than watching his kid!
Mark only wants what’s best for his daughter, and once he realizes she has unexpectedly taken to the new babysitter, he vows to do everything in his power to explore romantic possibilities with the enchanting woman to try to keep his child happy.
Alicia agrees to babysit again, giving him hope, but as the night unfolds, secrets come to light, devastating their budding relationship.
They both find themselves torn between their hearts and familial duty, between past loyalties and new dreams and possibilities.
Suspicion, doubt, and distrust threaten to destroy them, but can the two of them fight through to what’s best for them all?

NEW RELEASE: The Billionaire's Assistant
The Billionaire's Assistant (Contemporary BWWM Interracial Romance)
SYNOPSIS: Stressed Naomi is having one of those “Murphy’s Law” kind of days—everything that can go wrong is going horribly wrong.
Traumatized by events from the night before, she ends up distracted at work—to the point that it gets her fired.
Her continued distraction leads to more catastrophe as she almost smashes into a stranger as she hurries away—or is it a blessing in disguise?
Noticing her distress, the handsome, wealthy-looking stranger offers her an attractive solution to her immediate needs: work for him as his personal assistant—no catch.
Ha! She doesn’t believe him, but her desperation makes her accept, and it isn’t long before she suspects he wants a whole lot more from her than getting his coffee!
She has been saving herself, but can she resist the hunk who saved her?
LAUNCH SPECIAL: 99c + BONUS book included for a limited time only! :)
