Now, with nowhere to go and no way to pay for it anyway, Kasey decides it’s time for a fresh start, which means a new apartment, a new career, and…no men. But as a magnet for ridiculousness and absurd brushes with the law, her start goes from fresh to stale in {Read More}

September 8, 2014 by Leave a Comment
I’m really excited to share the next cover in the Brew Ha Ha series. The jewel tones warmed up here are just gorgeous. I love the continued couple theme Sarah has done. The heroine’s fun outfit definitely captures Kasey, the prone-for-disaster focus of the book. Let’s just say, if something could go wrong it will…and then it will again. So, coming in October (wooohooo!) WORTH THE FALL: Kasey Lane is having a bad week. Understatement. Her idea of success never involved {Read More}

Another question people ask is “When are we getting more Ben & Jenna??” And a few very, very, very observant readers have {Read More}

March 25, 2014 by 3 Comments
As you probably don’t know (unless you follow a select number of YA writers on twitter) the RWA YA RITA category was canceled this year due to not making the 5% minimum of all the entries. I have several questions about how entries are logged, but was never able to track down any answers for you. I would like to say that, while I love RWA and respect all they do in the writing community…while my membership definitely taught me {Read More}
