Can you tell us a little about yourself and your writing career?
I am a mom, a wife, an author, a publisher, and a book distributor. Translation: I am incapable of sitting still. Ever. My first series was the young adult Gryphon Series. It’s filled with a strong family bond, snarky humor, shape-shifters, pirates, demons, and loads of actions! My Legends Saga is a bit darker read but still maintains my trademark humor. It takes the works of Washington Irving and Edgar Allen Poe and incorporates them into a modern day setting. I love to write, truly. And consider myself blessed to make a career out of fulfilling my passion.
Tell us a little about your new book Adapted for Film?
Adapted is a light hearted read about an author whose best-selling romance novel is being turned into a movie. This take a turn for the worst when she and the director butt heads over their visions for the film. To save the project from tanking, the studio executives orchestrate an elaborate PR stunt linking her to the star of the film, and Hollywood heart throb, Greyson Meyers.
Where did the idea for Adapted For Film come from. What was the inspiration?
It was inspired by fangirls everywhere that have their favorite celebrity that they ogle. I couldn’t help but link how fun it would be to be thrown into a situation where it’s your job to cozy up to that beautiful specimen. I mean, how fun would that be?!
Can you describe Aubrey, Cole and Greyson in 140 characters or less.
Aubrey- Goal-oriented, career focused, control freak, romantically jaded
Kole- Laid-back, hard-worker, charming in a way that’s infuriating when you want to hate him
Greyson- Hollywood god. Sex on two legs with an undeniable magnetism
Why should we pick up Adapted For Film?
This is a great, quick read for by the pool or lounging on the beach. It’s fun, angst free and sure to make you laugh!

In an elaborate PR hoax, she is publicly linked to Greyson Meyers, the swoon-worthy star of her movie. A whirl-wind love affair is staged for the couple to mirror the steamy chapters of her own books.
