“And, you feel that’s been a good use of your time?” (Side note: Before we dive fully into today’s blog post, I feel the need to state what I know. I know the question you just read was offered to me out of care and concern. I truly do understand, and take that into account. However, just because care and concern are the emotions guiding our actions, that doesn’t mean those goals are always what are achieved. Everyone has room to grow, most definitely me! Perhaps we all shoul

I know I’ve said that the playlist posts are my very favorite to write, but the plot summaries might be a close second. Usually because I already have them written 😉 I put my heart and soul into each and every story I write, but this one felt a little different for some reason. The Lord uses each book to change me a little for the better, but this one taught me a very special lesson: That we can be loved as we are, and also loved enough to be shown who we can become, both by

Six years ago, I woke up with a story in my head. I was maybe four months into my author journey, not even finished with my first draft of my first book. And yet, I was already feeling the deep pull to this new plot line, tempting me and calling me to begin placing its ink on the page. However, I am loyal to a fault. I couldn’t just abandon my then current work in progress. I had to see it through. And, I’m actually incredibly grateful for this odd quirk of mine. I learned so

Why did you write your book? Over the past three hundred and sixty-five days, I have been asked that question several times over. What inspired me to write Reframed ? I believe my answers have varied, when the inquiry was posed by both myself and others, and in every instance, the answer was sound. However, the truest, purest response is one I have forgotten during the process of releasing Reframed out into the world, and I think it is one I need reminding of: I wrote Reframe

You know what I usually feel stinks this time of year? Or just in general? Love. L-O-V-E, love. Least likely fan, right over here. Except…for this year. This year, I don’t mind the word that sends fear into the hearts of all single people round the world. Why? I’m so glad you asked! Because this year, I have my own love story to celebrate. Or rather, two love stories to celebrate 😉 That’s right, we are once again here to promote my two Latter-day Saint Romances, Reframed an

Creating the playlist for my books is always one of my very favorite parts of the process, a process I thought I had down pat after three books. But, it seems that in all aspects of its life, Reunited wanted to make sure that it was different, unique, and stood out from the crowd. It did this by being one of the most complicated stories I have ever written. Up to this point, that is 😉 I had a much more difficult time nailing down songs that really expressed Ryan and Gracie’s

Lately, I have been receiving one of my very favorite questions. Ever. Of all time. To infinity and beyond. Do you have any clean romance book recommendations for me? Oh my dear, you have come to the right place. Because, yes, of course I do. I’m single and a book nerd, basically all of my free time is spent reading just these types of books and obsessing over these types of authors. They are my very, very favorite, and I would be more than happy to share them with you. And,

There aren’t words. There truly aren’t. It’s so weird to think that Gracie and Ryan’s story was once just a scene in my brain, a convoluted playlist, and a dream. Even after putting Reframed out into the world, the excitement and disbelief has not worn off this second time around with Reunited . I am living out blessings I often wondered if would ever come to pass. I do not take one second of it for granted, and I cannot thank the people who have supported me through this jo

It’s been a while since we’ve had a Lulu lesson. Have you been missing her? She’s always up for grabs, in case anyone was wondering 😉 Just as a warning for all who think she is adorable and snuggly: Yesterday, while she was taking up a large portion of the space on my bed, I attempted to cuddle with her, and was met with a growl. A GROWL. You have been properly cautioned, and I hope those with this mindset make better judgement calls in the future. This blog is a little all

Thirty. That one word, has carried so many definitions over my short time on earth. When I was younger, it felt so far away. It felt so...
