Some Details
Vibe
The Stiletto series is very glam. Think men in suits, women in high-heels, with an upscale New York City lifestyle with a splash of 90s rom-com energy.
Heat Level
This is a steamy romance novel with explicit sex scenes and spicy language.
POV
This book is written in alternating third person POV.
Tone
My books are very banter/dialog driven. This is the final book in the Stiletto series, but also the crossover into Oxford, which gives it a distinct FRIENDS vibe, while still having one of the most intense love stories I’ve ever written.
Author Note
Many authors claim not to have favorite books. I am not one of them. This is one of my favorite books I’ve ever written, and definitely my favorite in the Stiletto/Oxford series. I write this fairly early in my career, and I didn’t know writing could be easy until I sat down to tell Emma and Cassidy’s story, which seemed to flow out of me like it had been waiting all along to be told.
The tension and longing is as intense as anything I’ve ever written.
(His name is Alex Cassidy, but he’s always Cassidy in my head, never Alex!)
A Reader-Favorite
“It was very difficult not to instantly like this book, because it had all the things I loved all rolled up into one: sass, humor, underlying sexual tension, as well as suits and office romance.”

A Little Excerpt
He moved closer and slipped an arm around her, his hand finding the small of her back.
“You used to love it when I put my hand here.” Cassidy’s voice was rough.
She lifted her chin slightly. “Did I? Must have blocked that out.” But the way the heat from his palm branded her made the lie come out just a little bit breathlessly.
His hand pressed, pulling her closer until there was nothing between them but their stormy past. “You sure about that?”
on Book Covers
I’ve made the unusual decision not to show the official book covers on my official author website for a variety of reasons:
Most of my books have multiple cover versions depending on language/country; the US English version is only one of many.
Several of my cover designs were spot-on when they released, but are now quite dated even though the love stories within are timeless.
I have an unwavering love for neutral colors, and elegantly minimalist design. The current rom-com cover trend towards candy colored cartoons is not my jam.
My website is my chance to present my work my way.
