Here’s where I get to let loose with behind-the-book stuff you might like to know. This is raw, unedited, and straight from me.

Billionaires of White Oaks has been a new and exciting project for me. This series is my first foray into writing in first person, present tense. I’ll admit, more than once I caught myself slipping back into third person. I’m hoping between my two fabulous editors and my totally awesome beta readers, I’ve corrected all my oopses.

At the time I was considering names for my series, the denim mill in our town closed its doors. After 125 years, the last selvage denim mill in the United States is no more. I found that extremely sad, and that’s what motivated the naming of this series. The apartment complex is based somewhat on an actual reinvented industrial business.

I loved creating Ms. Edna and Ms. Blanche and they will show up in each story. Why wouldn’t they? They’re the only ones who really know what’s going on. I’ve cracked myself up more than once over something they’ve done. Can’t you just see Elias sitting on a silk couch with a dainty teacup in his big hands?

Looking Glass Falls is an actual place near Asheville, NC. And it got its name just as I described. It’s really a beautiful place for a picnic and a first kiss. Did you catch that the intruders posted a pic of Elias and April on social media? Did you catch the other incidences? There were several times their pictures made social media. If Elias had answered Kent’s phone calls, he’d have known! But I couldn’t let that happen.

As you can probably tell, I’m a DIY junkie. If it’s on the DIY Network or HGTV, I watch it. I’ve even convinced myself that I can tackle projects around my house. That’s why I’ll be calling a contractor this summer to complete my attempts at converting a bedroom into my office. I can’t wait to move all my stuff from the dining room table to an actual office.

As I’m writing this, I’ve just finished Heartbreaker, and I’m working on Troublemaker and Mastermind. I don’t know if you’ve figured anything out about Troublemaker, but I assure you, the hotness level is off the charts. I mean, you met Kyle Welsh, right? Just to give you a peek, one of my research queries is about piercings. I’ll just leave it at that. Yes, I’m giggling.
