Tell us about your favorite character from your books?
This is my debut sweet romance release! So, I’d have to say I admire Carol from A Christmas for Carol for finding the strength to go on with her life while trying to figure out how to let love in again.
Tell us about your current/upcoming release.
I’ve always enjoyed watching the holiday classic, A Christmas Carol. I love the idea of someone from the other side coming to help a loved one on this side find their way to a better way of life. A Christmas for Carol is about a woman who has lost the love of her life. She’s closed off her heart and lost the joy of the season. When she finally meets someone she could love, Carol hestitates letting fears and insecurities get the best of her. What happens next is amazing! This is a soul-stirring holiday treat about forgiveness, second chances and love!
How would you describe your writing style?
My tagline is: Romance that touches your heart and each story I write is geared towards that goal, but I’m also hoping my characters inspire hope in the infinite possibilities of life and love. I enjoy writing love stories with a paranormal, supernatural or magical twist!
Tell us five things about you.
I’m dedicated to becoming a better writer with every story I create.
I always read before I go to bed.
I love books, chocolate and a good martini . . . sometimes all at once!
I’m originally from Mishawaka, Indiana! Try saying that three times really fast!
I sing, play the violin and make my own Christmas cookies!
What is on your bookcase/E-reader right now? What are some of your favorite authors?
Dean R. Koontz, Lara Adrian, Kimberly Kay Terry, Brenda Jackson, Lora Leigh, Linda Howard, Nancy Madore and many more!
What do you have coming in 2010? Any sneak peeks we can look at?
Hopefully, a call confirming my YA novel has been picked up! I’m currently working on another sweet romance for Valentine’s Day! Sneak peeks coming soon!

Thanks for having me on Raine and Happy Holidays!
Excerpt:
Her heart hammered as she yanked off the red ribbon, and lifted the box top to reveal an exquisite gold chain with a delicate charm. The little coffee cup sparkled with tiny diamonds. “It’s beautiful!” Carol gasped. “I can’t believe you got me a gift. Thank you. I love it!” On impulse she leaned over to give him a quick kiss, but Grant pulled her in closer. He tasted like cinnamon as he deepened the kiss, brushing his lips slowly across hers. Pulling off her hat, he laced his fingers through her hair, holding her in place as he teased and tasted every inch of her mouth.
Carol whimpered, overwhelmed by her need for him. Desire ignited and raged through her body as he caressed her tongue in deliciously deliberate strokes. She raised her hand to touch his beard, loving the way the short hairs tickled her fingers. Her craving for him was undeniable. She wanted to let go and give herself over to the feelings rushing through her as he massaged her scalp.
Maybe it was time to let go. Maybe it was time to let her heart feel something other than pain and guilt.
He pulled away, leaving her lips throbbing and tingling. Neither of them spoke for a few seconds, the hum of the heater the only sound in the truck.
Grant stared out the window at the snow falling more heavily on the windshield. “There’s something between us, Carol. Something I’ve never felt before with any woman and I know you feel it, too.”
Carol loosened her scarf, still frazzled from his kiss and her own chaotic emotions.
“I know we’ve only been on one date—“
“Three.” Carol corrected him, then blushed when she saw the triumphant look on his face.
“I know. I was just checking to see if you were counting our lunch dates. I feel like I already know so much about you and I still want to spend more time with you.”
Carol shook her head. “This is crazy. We hardly know each other.”
Grant looked at her. “That’s not true. I know you’re a morning person. I know you like cream and sugar in your coffee. I know you like to wear the color yellow. I know you don’t like to wear a lot of make-up. I know you obsess over tiny details at your job. I know you like to laugh. I know holiday music makes you crazy.”
Carol looked at him in shock until she couldn’t see him because of the tears in her eyes again. “Stop. Stop!”
Grant grabbed her hand. “I can’t, because I want to know more. I know you’ve been through something tragic and life changing. I understand that, but I have to know if I even have a chance with you.”
Carol wiped her tears. “Grant . . . .” She wanted to admit there was something between them. She’d felt it the first day he walked into her café all those months ago.
