Sorry to disappoint you...

Hi ,


🖤 My current WIP, Dark romance AU, is about a hit man who's sent to "take care of" a male escort but ends up saving him (and giving him the superior kicking he's always deserved), instead. Ready to read chapter one? It's up on the Patreon.


You can also preorder Dark Romance AU, and the rest of the multi-author Because Cannon Sucks! series, on Amazon.


🖤 Quick reminder that Blackmail is on deep discount in ebook for just a few more days! You can buy it from me directly or at most major vendors. 🖤

🖤 So, tell me: Are you a discreet paperback reader, or a cover model fan?


I've had some paperback loving folks reach out, expressing their disappointment that my paperbacks do not have the naked man chest--ahem--models on their covers. To those readers, I see you, I hear you, and I deeply apologize for the disappointment. One day I'll have the budget to do fancy-schmancy special editions (🙏), with some hot models or maybe even mind-blowing character art, and boy will that be exciting. When I made the decision to go discrete with the paperbacks for Belle Argo Escorts, I was thinking about the readers I knew in my own life: my fantasy-loving hairdresser who likes to read at Starbucks, that girl at Disney World who came with her friends but opted to sit on a bench reading while her friends go on the Guardians of the Galaxy ride (she was reading ACOTAR, I was reading The Barbarian's Claim). I was thinking of myself, who sometimes enjoys pulling marketing quotes while treating herself at her favorite ice cream parlor, which happens to be frequented by children who do not need to get curious about how Ravi calls Liam "Daddy." 🤣


So, to the folks who are like me and enjoy treating themselves to something yummy while..."treating yourself to something yummy." I've got you. And thank you to those of you who have asked how they can better support me as an indy author. I've set up a direct store through Curios, where you can not only get those discreet paperbacks signed, but it's a huge help to all of us indy authors because when you buy direct more money goes to the author, rather than to the online vendor. It also allows me to do things like give a bit of a discount for anyone who wants to buy the ebook and paperback as a bundle (!!!).


Oh! And for a limited time (until I run out of them) all new direct paperback orders will come with one of these cute Heated Rivalry stickers that I managed to snag before they sold out. They took forever and ever to ship from Canada, but I FINALLY have them in my hot little hands and I'm ready to pass the goodness on to you beautiful people!

🖤 Lastly, thank you, thank you, THANK YOU to all of you who have already read Dubious, who preordered, to everyone who has been kind enough to post a review, or to share my posts on social media, or share the book with their friends. The pool of books available in the marketplace is bigger than ever, and I always take it as a huge honor when someone has taken the time out of their busy schedule to spend time with my characters. I hope you love them as much as I do. 🖤

Wishing you all the happy endings,
