Meet Bull -my Red Hot & Blue series’ next hunky military hero!

IN EBOOK OCTOBER 29th When the going gets tough, the tough go out with a bang… Spec Op “Bull” Ford is as big as his nickname. His team, the civilians he protects, whether they know it or not, all depend on him. But beneath his stony exterior beats the heart of a caring man—unless he’s crossed. Between her job as professional harpist and fending off an ex-boyfriend who won’t take the hint, Marly feels like a circus juggler. She doesn’t need some oversized, overzealous security guard accusing her of being a terrorist—as if a five-foot-nothing woman in a ball gown could threaten anyone. Though when the real terrorists strike, she’s more than grateful to have Bull at her side…or on top, which certainly makes what could be her last breaths memorable. But after Bull takes the brunt of the explosion, Marly is left with feelings for a man who doesn’t remember who she is. And by the time the red-hot memories come flooding back, the trail to her heart may have gone cold. Warning: Contains explosive sexual encounters—literally! PREORDER ON AMAZON

Classic Romance Tropes – enemies to lovers (opposites attract part 2)

Last week, I brought you a post about one classic romance trope, opposites attract. You can read that HERE. Disney knows the value of this classic theme. Think Beauty and the Beast. Writers of the past knew it too. Remember Darcy and Elizabeth in Pride and Prejudice? As in that story, opposites attract can sometimes be accompanied by another theme, the “I hate you, I love you” enemies to lovers scenario. That’s what happens in my upcoming release, MODEL SOLDIER. The heroine and the hero couldn’t be more different. They mix like oil and water and in the beginning it causes quite a bit of friction as they are forced to work together. But you know what happens, friction can cause sparks, and in this case, the sparks are of the sexual attraction variety until the two are burning up the sheets. You can read an excerpt at the Samhain site. What’s your favorite romance trope? I’d love to hear.
