I write fun contemporary romances with geeky characters who love to read books, too!
A fake engagement between a fisheries scientist and a wounded veteran becomes long distance yearning, until a cross-country road trip tests Rey and Grace's feelings.
A Smart B*tches, Trashy Books reviewer wrote, "In my heart, it's an A++++" and it won Romance Writers of America's 2015 RITA Award for Best Romance Novella. Also, my mother said it had too much sex (it really doesn't, it's a slow burn!)...so you can't go wrong starting here.
Best friends move a couch together...and suddenly a grumpy football coach and a sunny waitress are risking eight years of friendship.
A novella that started as fan fic of a certain green ogre and a chatty sidekick became a "fun spicy read" perfect for an hour or two of summer escape.

Two former athletes build new lives, but they're both missing someone to love.
Can a morning person with a secret craft room, a dog, and too many hobbies teach a cynical former figure skater to say "my boyfriend" without flinching? With a little help from an abandoned kitten, sure.
