Love stories with morally gray men and the feisty women they adore.

My first post!
I write love stories with fantasy, darkness, and spice. While I mostly write fantasy romance, I like to dabble in mafia and contemporary. The love story is always the main character in my stories. The world building and twists are my icing on the cake!
After a day of socializing I’m ready to return to my introverted ways. I’ll be over here in the corner the rest of the night in my pajamas with a drink and a book if you need me.

Renamed my Facebook group and updated the cover. This writer is taking charge of her life again!

I’m tired of editing and ready to write again.

I turn my back for five minutes and my sandwich disappears from the counter.
Nobody’s in the room but the dog avoiding my scowl.
Maybe we have a ghost 🤷🏻‍♀️

I’m at 171,000 words in my wip and I had no idea it was going to be so long. I’m ready to be at the end and the happy ending I get to write but there’s so much story and world building left 😩

Survived my first night back to grad school! This is where I belonged all the time. Talking about books & poetry and in the academic space again.

Twenty years uncomfortably fitting into the financial advisory space & now I understand why that never felt right.

Books & writing are my vibe.

Ok so I’m waiting for my class to start. First day back in grad school and I’m like the old lady in the group 🫤
And my college daughter told me not to worry about bringing my laptop…uh thanks. Everyone had a laptop but me.

Just finished Queen of Shadows and I’m finally at the point in this series where I’m fully invested and can’t wait to get to the next book. One of the character arcs I’m not happy about (I’m looking at you Chaol) but for the most part loving it 🙂

Spent the day sick in bed but added over 6,000 words to my current project. That takes me over 92,000 words! Yay!!

Current read is the Dreamland Billionaires series and I think I need to include more contemporary romance in my TBR. I’m enjoying this series way too much.

I hit 86,000 words on my latest book and I’m not even halfway through the story. I love writing long books but this may end up a lot longer than I expected!
