… and Friends with Benefits will be live! And from what I’ve heard from my ARC readers, they are loving it! Campbell has become the favorite right after Dax (sorry, but Dax, I guess is always first for many readers and I can’t blame them). It’s also really steamy… Here’s an excerpt: We stumble ontoContinue reading “One More Day”

Weekly Update #amwriting
I took this photo during my first trip to the Frick Collection in New York’s Upper West Side three years ago this week. It was from a free paper I picked up along the way and I still have it three years later. Sometimes I see the photo posted on other people’s social media feedsContinue reading “Weekly Update #amwriting”
Sunday Word Count #excerpt
I got to 680 before everyone woke up and it’s time to get off the computer and step outside for a while. That’s 11109 words into my holiday novella and so far, I think I may have found my groove. Caitlin and Campbell seem to be cruising right along and I couldn’t be happier. I’mContinue reading “Sunday Word Count #excerpt”
Crack Open A Window
It’s a harmless game between us and I’m grateful for the distraction. I’ve never met any of Sawyer’s girlfriends before but I’ve seen pictures of them, or at least, one of them, a petite woman with a pixie haircut who Drew told me was a massage therapist and yoga instructor. I vaguely remember Drew saying that she was the reason Sawyer spent a lot of time in Sedona although that was a few years ago. The only thing I know about Sawyer’s love life so far these days is that he doesn’t wear a ring.
Three Days
Already the ARCs went out and I really hope readers will enjoy Alma and Sawyer’s story. The paperback will be delayed because it took me forever to get things started and my cover designer won’t work on it until next week. But one thing’s pretty sure: I think I’m ready to let go and handContinue reading “Three Days”
Five More Days
While finalizing the playlist for Breaking the Rules, I realized I hadn’t shared some of the songs that inspired the story. There are a few but I’ll start with Sawyer’s song, Are We Too Late by singer/songwriter Tom Leeb. Excerpt Half an hour later, I step out of Tyler’s nursery and find Sawyer drying the lastContinue reading “Five More Days”
“I’m Still Here.”
Josh grabbed her wrist, his grip tight. “What are you doing?” “I’m feeling for scar tissue, that’s all,” she said. “I’m a doctor, remember? Sure, I may not be practicing but I’m still a trained medical professional.” “I appreciate your concern, Livvy,” Josh said. He leaned forward, his face close to hers. “But what areContinue reading ““I’m Still Here.””
Would You Run Away Then?
“When I was growing up,” I began. “I learned early on that while there were people who cared for you, there were others for whom your well-being was the last thing on their minds. And satisfying their needs came above all else. I guess you could say I fall between those two extremes.” “That’s aContinue reading “Would You Run Away Then?”
Focus, Dax. Look Up. (An Excerpt)
One of my favorite scenes in Everything She Ever Wanted is the Anaya family dinner where Dax has to face Harlow after their not-so-friendly first meeting three days earlier. And with the holiday season in full swing, it’s one of the scenes that always brings a smile to my face. “You forgot, didn’t you?” SarahContinue reading “Focus, Dax. Look Up. (An Excerpt)”
It’s a Heat Wave #TeaserTuesday: Meet Addy and Jordan
“So you just got back yesterday?” I ask, hating the silence that springs between us. “Yes, and I’ve been catching up on stuff… and jet lag.” “I imagine this wasn’t anywhere near the stuff you were expecting to catch up on.” He smiles. “No, but it is what it is. I’m glad you told me.”Continue reading “It’s a Heat Wave #TeaserTuesday: Meet Addy and Jordan”
