Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
Well, I live in the Midwest. I love all things Regency, so my two books I’ve written so far are Regency romance novels.
I’m working on a third book which will be a little twist to the formula, and so far it’s been a lot of fun!
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
My latest book (which will be released in July 2020) is called Tempting the Duke. I love forbidden romances, so I was inspired by the idea of a man and woman who have an instant attraction and chemistry, but for whatever reason they can’t be together right away. In my book, the Duke of Devonshire finds himself unexpectedly responsible for 18-year-old Louisa Kellynch, so he tries and fails to repress his attraction to her. He really has to work through his conflicting feelings of desire and honor.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
When I need to get in the zone, I play the same song on repeat for hours. It might drive some people crazy, but it works for me!
What authors, or books have influenced you?
I’m obviously a big Jane Austen fan, which is how I got started on the Regency romance path in the first place.
What are you working on now?
My current work in progress is a Regency novel with a fantasy twist. It’s set in the 1800s, and it has all the trappings of a typical romance, but the heroine is a witch and the hero is cursed. They hate each other, but they need to pool their resources to defeat a common enemy. Writing this has been great fun!
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
I love getting my books into the hands of readers as soon as possible, so I try to use as many ARC sites as I can.
What are you reading now?
I’m reading Maureen Johnson’s YA series Truly Devious – it’s addictive!
