So much to be thankful for

Enjoying the open bar and a choice SnapChat filter.

I had a wonderful Thanksgiving with my family this year. We visited our family in New Orleans, which is always so much fun (despite the challenge of a 13 hour drive with two kids in the backseat.) While we were there, we helped my in-laws celebrate their 50th wedding anniversary. It was a lovely ceremony, in which they renewed their vows. After my father-in-law’s tearful love letter to his wife, there wasn’t a dry eye in the house.

We had a huge, delicious meal, full of all the traditional NOLA trimmings: turkey with oyster dressing, squash & shrimp casserole, sweet potatoes, and an array of vegetables. I’ll need to cut back for the next few weeks just to fit in my jeans again.

And as awesome as all of that was–and believe me, I am so grateful–I have one more thing to be thankful for this year. I’ve signed with Limitless Publishing! That’s right, Brick has a home. I don’t have all of the details yet. The cover, release date, and all that good stuff will come soon. And I promise to share them all as soon as I know more.

In the meantime, thank YOU for making this journey with me. I am incredibly blessed.

Who I am and what I love

Thank you so much for taking the time to visit my site! There’s never a way to kick off one of these without being a little awkward, but here goes.

I’ve been a romance reader and reviewer since 2010 and I’m making it my mission to write the kind of heroes and love stories I want to read about more. My favorite romances feature tortured heroes, like the ones in Kerrigan Byrne’s Victorian Rebels series, who only learn their true worth through the eyes of the women who love them. There are so many authors who do an amazing job with this trope, I have tons of inspiration to draw from.

I also love upper class women paired with working class men.

And I love to see a sweet and gentle man finally get his heart’s desire.

Those are the tropes that inspired the first three books in the Cooper Construction series. (And just like that, I have the inspiration for my next three blog posts!)

Brick is the character nearest and dearest to my heart. I can’t wait to introduce you to him.
