Behind the scenes of HOT SEAL, DIRTY MARTINI

Warning–hot beach house pictures ahead! We’re just over ONE MONTH away from the release of HOT SEAL, DIRTY MARTINI so I thought I’d give you a peek into my writing process. Hot SEAL, Dirty Martini is about a west coast Navy SEAL who put in his twenty years and is looking forward to a peaceful retirement in the beach paradise he just found for sale–a 1950s bungalow he wants to buy and renovate. Of course the heroine is there to throw a wrench into his plans because this is an enemies-to-lovers theme, but more about that later . . . this post is about the house itself. When I write books and the setting or the buildings are a critical part of the plot, I always research actual sites in the location where the story is set. For instance, when I wrote Cowboy Blue (originally titled A Cowboy for Christmas) set on a cattle ranch in Colorado, I searched and found an actual ranch listed for sale in that area, and that listing provided pictures and facts such as number of acres and number and types of buildings, all that helped me with much needed details for the story. For Hot SEAL, […]

It’s Billionaire for Hire New Release Day

It’s BILLIONAIRE FOR HIRE new release day! The Billionaire for Hire new release marks the first book in the FOR HIRE series, the new spin-off of my Hot SEALs series, set in the same world with cameos by some of your favorite characters. The crossover between the two series began in January with SEAL the Deal (Hot SEALs series) featuring Zane Alexander doing a favor for his old prep school friend Brent Hearst. Now, Brent ‘owes Zane one” which results in Zane coming to Brent to collect on the debt in Billionaire for Hire (For Hire series). Billionaire for Hire (For Hire) “I owe you one.” I didn’t realize when I said that to my Navy SEAL buddy he’d actually collect on the debt. Or that it could cost me my life. I’m Brent Hearst, for God’s sake. A member of the one percent. As in old family money. Yet somehow I’m standing here, smiling while there’s a gun strapped to my leg ruining the line of my Italian suit. But my real issue isn’t with that gun. Oh, no. It’s my other weapon I can’t control when I’m around the sexy-as-sin brunette who might or might not be a spy. It seems I don’t care which while […]
