Food and Love
No matter what I’m writing, food makes its way into my books. My Sexy Chefs battle it out in the kitchen. My Hot Nights heroes and heroines simmer and sizzle their way toward love. My paranormal heroine uses her Talent to grow vegetables for her vegetarian café. Even my kinksters take a break for tiramisu and chocolate cheesecake. There’s no getting away from it. Food is the world I know and love. So grab a seat at my table and dig in to some hot romance!
Readers describe my books as: romantic, foodie, engaging, sensual, spicy, addicting, playful, clever, edgy, erotic, fun, sexy, smart, fresh, empowering, intimate, and saucy!
