Tuesdays Like That has been out in the wild for 36 days now! Can you believe it? I know I can't! I absolutely loved getting to write Jordan and Tuesday's story...And I'm worried it will be hard to replace them in the next story.
Have you read Tuesdays Like That yet?
Tuesday
My grandma’s dying wish is to see me married. That’s kind of hard when my idea of commitment is finishing a TV series.
So I organize a fake wedding to Jordan Boone.
I’ll be the wish grantor and keep my freedom.
Do I know my fake husband? Barely. We played together as children since our grandmothers were best friends, so I’m grateful he’s willing to go along with my wild idea.
Except someone (ahem, Mimi Boone) interferes, and apparently we’ve been married for real. My very real hunk of a husband has grown up to be a fiiiine man.
That still isn’t enough for me to want to be trapped in a marriage. Undoing it should be easy. It will be easy. Just as soon as I get this inheritance mess straightened out…
Jordan
My fake wife is vivacious, beautiful, and wants to get away from me as fast as possible. I can’t blame her when the feeling is mutual. I don’t like being manipulated.
A quickie divorce would be the obvious answer, but then Tuesday finds out she can’t inherit her grandparents’ farm without me.
What kind of guy would I be if I walked away?
And when Tuesday moves in with me while I renovate my cousin’s house…playing house together isn’t near as bad as I imagined.
What happens if I’m never ready to let her go?
Note: This is a closed door romance with steamy kisses, mild language, and talks about grief.
Random news:
- Last week, I was able to sneak away for a few days thanks to my husband and do ALL the writing. It was amazing. (I also caught up on a few years of sleep debt which was great because now I feel rejuvenated and ready to make it through the rest of the school year with littles!)
- I had a birthday this week and my husband 100% spoiled me with all the food and dessert and fun times hanging out with family. Also, my kids have hit the age where they make me adorable cards and homemade presents and it's the sweetest thing ever!
- P.S. My husband was a good sport and turned photographer for me. He snapped a picture of me holding ALL the books I've written and it was super fun!
Writing news:
I'm sitting on some writing secrets right now. 😜 Suffice it to say, lots of fun things are going to be happening this year. AND I'M HERE FOR IT.
Keep your eyes out for a fun announcement on May 26!
In the meantime, if you've read Tuesdays Like That...I would love it if you could leave a review on Amazon! Reviews help authors AND readers!
Lots of love and awkward hugs,

Fireworks plus mistletoe equal one explosive kiss…
Beauregard Slater sure brings the fireworks. Too bad they aren’t the good kind. My brother’s best friend was so hot he blew up my graduation day with one humiliating almost-kiss. It took me five years to diffuse that memory. So when we’re thrown together for my mother’s hare-brained Christmas in July, I won’t let Beau reignite my heart. Which leaves me with one question…
How close can I stand to this old flame without getting burned?
Kasey Graham is pure mistletoe. Beautiful and tempting and more out of reach than the star on a Christmas tree. Why? Because my best friend made it crystal clear his little sister is off limits. To keep my heart free from her, I kept myself on the opposite side of the world. Now her lips are inches from mine and sweeter than candy canes. Which leaves me with one question…
How much am I willing to risk when Kasey’s all I want for Christmas?
Want a free sample of this fun romcom????
Conor Brady is the hottest man I have ever laid eyes on. Ever. He’s also my new roommate.
In the past few days, I became jobless, homeless, and boyfriendless.
So, I did what any 28-year-old woman with her life together would do: I ran. Far, far away from my life in New York and straight to my big brother’s house in Atlanta.
Only, it turns out that my brother is away on a business trip. And, he failed to tell me that a full-on, godlike hottie—who happens to be a premier house flipper—has taken up residence in the spare bedroom while his enormous new house is being renovated.
There’s a million reasons why I shouldn’t fall for Conor.
But our chemistry is undeniable.
Which means I have a teeny, tiny situation on my hands…
