I love writing stories with angst and heart, heart-melting kisses, and happy endings.

I’m currently working on two New Adult projects. The first, Running Scared, is about the daughter of a federal prosecutor, and the bodyguard hired to protect her from herself. The second is a trilogy about three friends bound together by a terrible tragedy, and the scars it left behind.

I also write erotic romance because I like to expose my characters completely – strengths, flaws and scars. My debut novella, Revving Her Up, was the first story in the Full Throttle series, which focuses on the bad boys – and girls! – of stockcar racing. It was a Night Owl Reviews Top Pick, and has been called “one heck of a sexy ride” (Sizzling Hot Books), and “a hell of a sexy read” (Read-Love-Blog). I am currently working on the next two stories in the series. My most recent release is Unmasked, which was released by Coliloquy Publishing in October 2013 in Revealed: Entwined Erotica Volume 2.

Before turning my keyboard to love and lust, I studied oceanography, and spent my days trying to save the world one fish at a time. While the environment is still one of my passions, these days my focus is on writing and growing veggies in the Washington, D.C. area with my scientist husband and two curious kids. I’m originally from New York City, (and still a loyal Yankees fan!), but since moving south of the Mason-Dixon line, I’ve developed passions for NASCAR and country music. Both feature in my recent stories.
