What story I’m currently working on:

I’m still working on Charmed in Charleston because it made the most sense once I finished with my Rehoboth Pact trilogy! I hit 46k in the book and I’m quickly heading toward the final 15k, which is great. I have it all mapped out, so I’m hoping it continues to move smoothly and comes out well. I’m not sure which book I’ll dive into after that, whether it’ll be Outlaws #2 or the final Discord’s Desire book. Regardless, I know the next one I work on will be another contribution to a serieses.

What I’m editing/marketing:

I’ve been working on the edits for Rehoboth Pact #3, Restrained Desires, and while I think I have a lot of the content under control, I do still need to tweak the ending a bit. I’m mulling over that one. I’m just hoping that one of these avenues pans out in finding a home for this series, because I’ll have all 3 books edited and ready to go by that time, which is awesome. The next book on the horizon is my last release for the year, Waking for Winter, which is scheduled to come out September 2nd and marks the end of my Philadelphia Coven Chronicles series!

Line of the week:

She was in the middle of trying to divorce her husband, and the only thing she could think about was the man standing before her.

Of what it might be like to be possessed by this man, to be his.

Her mouth dried a little, but she closed the inches of space between them to press her lips to his. In the wake of the emotion broiling through the air between them, it was the only avenue that made sense. This touch made her synapses spark to life, made her feel the sheer transcendence she’d only experienced when she was a kid, heading out to Lake Moultrie for the day where she’d go fishing with her dad. The way the sun sank deep into her skin, the laughs with her siblings, the smell of sunscreen and fresh water in the air—all of it left such a brand on her she thought she’d never capture that light again.

Yet each encounter with Mitch brought her closer and closer.

What story I’m currently working on:

Well, I started into Charmed in Charleston #3 again! It’s going pretty smoothly and I figured out how the rest of the book will proceed, so I’m hoping to get some more of that done! I did figure out the basic premise of Outlaws #2 and the final Discord’s Desire books, so I’ll be diving into those ones next! I’m pretty excited. Plus, once I finish the third Charmed in Charleston book, I’ll have all the way until 2024 to write out the final two in the series.

What I’m editing/marketing:

I finished the edits on Rehoboth Pact #2, Opposed Desires, thank fuck! I also figured out the title, lol. I did already start working on Rehoboth Pact #3, Restrained Desires, because I’m a glutton for punishment! I’m just hoping that eventually I find a home for the first book in the series so I can enjoy the books coming out next year without having to worry about continuing the series. The next book on the horizon and my last release for the year is Waking for Winter, which will come out September 2nd and it marks the end of my Philadelphia Coven Chronicles series.

Line of the week:

Nell didn’t miss the way Mitch carefully tried everything she’d prepared, taking a swig of the lemonade in between. The gratitude when their gazes cracked something open inside of her. She just wanted to wrap her arms around the kid who’d been neglected his entire life, who had to take on burdens far beyond his years from early on.

Every so often, his fingers would caress down her arms, through her hair, soft touches that sent her ablaze just as much as the rough ones. Nell swallowed the lump that continued to grow in her throat. From the way the waves glittered like the stars above to the tender, passionate man by her side, everything about this night was the sort of perfect that felt unattainable.

The sort of perfect that could never last in the light of day.

What story I’m currently working on:

Still no new writing this week, and I’m starting to get that itch. I’m getting further with my editing clients, so I’ll be able to dive back into one of the new books on my agenda soon. Again, I’m either going to start Discord’s Desire #4, Outlaws #2, or Eros Tales #3, which I’m just going to start calling by the new series title, Charmed in Charleston. I did get the new covers for the series which will come out in 2024, and they’re gorgeous.

What I’m editing/marketing:

I’m on the final round of edits for Rehoboth Pact #2, which I need to really finalize a name for. I called it Tormented Desires originally, but I’m not in love with that title, so I’m considering something else. I might even put editing Rehoboth #3 on hiatus for at least a week so I can get some new words on the page. After that, it’s just a waiting game as I try to find a home for Confined Desires and can get this completed series a home! The next book on the horizon and my last release for the year is Waking for Winter, which will come out September 2nd and it marks the end of my Philadelphia Coven Chronicles series.

Line of the week:

Aubrey’s lips caressed her neck as the woman pinned her against the cool surface of bathroom stall, and she couldn’t help but surrender. Selina closed her eyes and let the sensations wash over her. Her core throbbed, and her pulse quickened in the wake of the way the woman bit, nipped, and sucked at the column of her neck. She’d wrapped her arms around Aubrey’s shoulders, and the woman’s hands remained on her hips with a settling grip that let her know who was in charge.

She’d always suspected Aubrey Moore would be unforgettable at this sort of thing, but the reality shattered her expectations. The scent of lemon and sage lingered around her, pure Aubrey. The woman smelled fresh and vibrant, filled with so much life. Aubrey’s lips met hers again in a crash as their mouths tangled in a collision of tongues and teeth. Both of them kissed like this might be their last one, as if they chased every final sensation together.

What story I’m currently working on:

I haven’t written all week, but I’m okay with that. I now have two books to edit, so I need to reroute my focus before I start into anything else. Plus, I’m super busy with editing clients as well. I am trying to figure out what books to dive into next, which is tough to navigate. I was halfway through Eros Tales #3, which makes me think I should dive into that next, but I also have the final Discord’s Desire book to write as well as the next book in the Outlaws series.

What I’m editing/marketing:

I started heavily into the editing of Rehoboth Pact #2, since I need to get some of it off my plate. Once I finish with that one, I should be able to jump immediately into Rehoboth Pact #3 since I already started getting beta reader input on that one! I’m antsy to find a home for that series, mostly because I’ll have a full completed series ready to send out once Confined Desires finds a home. Last Friday was super fun as well, with Tempting Ballad coming out!!! It marked my first LGBT romance published.

Line of the week:

Chelsea pursed her lips into a knowing grin as she slipped the sides of her flimsy black skirt up higher and higher along those perfect thighs that Kyle would kill to bury herself between. Goddamn, this woman was a pure fantasy, and now she was single.

Straight. Chelsea Moore was straight, which meant she’d forever be that—a fantasy.

Chelsea whipped her sultry strands around as she flipped her skirt up, revealing black lace panties—fuck, not helping. The song began to kick into a crescendo, those lusty vocals matching the provocative moves that this woman kept upping. If she full-out stripped on stage, Kyle was pretty sure Aubrey would burn this place down. Though Selina was right. Both of the Moore girls were sticks of dynamite, and this divorce had lit Chelsea right up.

Guys in the next booth over were whistling louder than ever, nearly hanging out with their jaws dropped. Kyle couldn’t really blame them—the woman was an inferno that made her want to burn to ash.

Tempting Ballad is OUT!!!

Tempting Ballad is OUT!!!!

One hot night together was all Renn and Leo shared, and neither expected to see the other again.

However, when Leo Kincaid shows up after one of their gigs on the other side of the country, Renn’s intrigued. When Leo produces information on Renn’s missing sister, he’s ensnared. Leo needs an alliance from an Unseelie family, a rival to those who kidnapped Renn’s sister. It’s enough dangled bait to ditch the band, and the sparks between them are immediate and incendiary.

On their own, they don’t stand a chance of retrieving his sister, but luckily for him, his bandmates aren’t the giving up sort. Together with the Discord’s Desire crew, they prepare for a fight against one of the most dangerous Unseelie families. However, spending so much time around Leo Kincaid is dangerous. Renn finds himself wanting something more, which breaks the pact he made long ago: never get attached.

What story I’m currently working on:

I ended up hitting 50k on Rehoboth Pact #3 and finishing the book! With my massage job opening back up again and a fair amount of editing work on my plate, I’m super busy on the editing front and haven’t even begun to think of what I’m going to work on next. That’s something to mull over for sure. I’m guessing my word counts will be fairly low for the next few weeks, but I’m hoping to be able to dive into something soon.

What I’m editing/marketing:

I’ve been doing a little bit of line editing on Rehoboth Pact #2, and then I’ve already started getting some responses and feedback in for Rehoboth Pact #3, so I’ll probably be editing them in tandem for the month. I’m also pretty loaded with my work-editing jobs. Regardless, I’m super, super excited Tempting Ballad comes out in a FEW DAYS, and I’m super excited after all the work I put into that book. Renn and Leo’s story is scorching, and I adored writing the pair.

Line of the week:

Fuck, and she missed Chelsea, so damn much.

Her apartment felt emptier than it normally did, so many spaces that Chelsea had just filled up whenever she came over, which had been all the time. In a short month, she’d gotten so used to having Chelsea around all the time, whether she was coming over to visit, they were going out together, or simply texting each other throughout the day. A dozen and one times she’d considered just messaging her and calling a truce, that she didn’t mean any of it.

This loneliness was consuming, aching, and devastating.

This loneliness felt a lot like grief.
