I have officially started writing my new Harlequin Presents as I anticipate the late May 22nd release of my next Harlequin Presents, Not Fit for a King?, which has gotten a stellar 4 1/2 star Top Pick review from RT. I try so hard not to get attached to reviews, good or bad, because I give […]

Easter Parade
This will be a very short post as I’m on a plane right now heading to Hawaii with Ty and Mac and we’re going to lose our internet connection any moment. I am so happy to be getting to Hawaii for Easter…but sorry I didn’t get my book in before I left, so Hawaii is […]
Almost Three
Mac is so much fun right now, and just a month shy of turning three. He’s full of stories, talks nonstop, and loves making us laugh. Mac’s favorite words are (and in no particular order): skeletons, zombies, pirates, cats, chocolate, adventure, ghosts, fighting, swords, brothers, gross, disgusting, and weird. And with those as your vocabulary, […]
I Heart Lilian Darcy
I’ve had a strange couple of months with regards to blogging and social media. I’m finding it hard to do. Don’t have a lot to say. Find my thoughts (and me!) incredibly boring. When I’m actively writing I don’t have a sense of outward things…just my story, and my family. And trying to continually find […]
February Love
Those of you who’ve read my blogs for awhile now know I love February, everything about February as its my birth month and Valentine’s Day and President’s Day and everything pink and red and sweet and sentimental. I love Valentine decorations and how wonderfully short the month is compared to January and March. I love […]
Dreaming of Beaches & Book Stores
We’ve made an offer on a house in San Clemente, California and hope to close before the end of February. It’s a great house, a historic home, very close to the beach and the San Clemente pier, and so it looks like we’re definitely heading to California in June once boys finish school. It’s exciting […]
Snow Play
What a week! We’ve had days and days of snow and the kids have absolutely loved being out of school. I haven’t been playing though as my deadline is less than a month away and I’m deep into this new book. I really love this one, its complicated and intense, but also really fun as […]
Back to Work
I am working–writing–and it feels good. Really good. I’m one hundred pages into my story and there are areas I need to tighten and edit, and other areas I need to build up and flesh out, but its exciting to start understanding the story and feeling the characters come alive. I am going to be […]
This is the Real Thing
I don’t relax easily. Find it difficult to sit still unless I’m reading something, and even then I’m wiggling a foot up and down, a constant jiggle perfected by my fellow Porters…my dad, my brothers, even my sister to a certain extent. I’ve a quick temper, too, far too impatient, and easily irritated when I […]
Munich
Thank you to everyone for your wonderful sister tag suggestions. Loved them. Love you. You are the best of the best. Feel so fortunate to have readers and friends like you. Speaking of reading, I just finished a fantastic Georgette Heyer, Faro’s Daughter, and it was truly wonderful. Faro’s Daughter and Arabella have to be […]
