You would think a romance writer could easily define romance, but that isn’t the case – at least for this romance writer. After giving it much consideration, I decided romance means something different for everyone, but most of us can agree that there are some universal symbols that represent romance in our minds. Who doesn’t see a bouquet of red roses or a diamond ring and not think about romance?

After thirty-four years of marriage – to the same guy – those things are nice gestures, but an offer of dinner out after a long day at the computer is likely to generate the same response from me as a big bouquet of flowers. When it comes right down to it, it’s the thought that puts romance in the gift – not the gift itself.

Not that I don't think diamonds are a girls best friend, but these days, I'm more about baseball diamonds than the carbon kind! Check out the new cover for my baseball themed menage, INSIDE HEAT.

Megan’s quest for an autograph turns into a proposition to play with the sexiest twins in baseball, and it’s all fun and games until someone falls in love.

Read an Excerpt here.

Look for the second book in the series -
 GOING DEEP, October, 2012. 

Inside Heat is available at these retailers –
Amazon – eBook and print
Barnes & Noble – eBook and print
Apple iBook Store
