Personal
- Do you laugh at your own jokes?
Yes, which annoys my teenage daughters SO much! They find me funny but would never admit it, which just adds to my fun
- Have you ever found true love?
Yes, and we’re still married 16 years later – my husband and I met when we 18, married at 24 and had our first child at 25. A lot of people thought things were too intense and quick between us but I knew he was the one. We’re still very happy!
Your Novel
- How did you choose your title?
Luckily, Harlequin have the final say on titles which I am extremely grateful for – I absolutely hate coming up with titles! I am so unimaginatively boring when it comes to naming my work. What Belongs To Her is my twelfth novel and coming up with titles never gets any easier!
- Who is your most unusual/most likeable character?
I adore Marian Cohen who is the matriarch of Templeton Cove – so far I have written four Templeton Cove books for Harlequin Superromance and Marian makes a significant appearance in all of them. She is by far one of my favorite characters I have ever created J
- You got the call – your novel is being made into a TV series or movie – who’s in your dream cast?
This is an easy question for me because I start each new book trawling the internet for images of my hero and heroine – for What Belongs To Her, Sasha Todd would be played by Angie Harmon (Rizzoli & Isles) and John Jordon would be played by Cam Gigandet (Easy A)
Writing
- How many stories are swirling around in your head? Do you keep a mental list, a computer file, or a spiral notebook filled with the ideas?
I am usually writing one book, editing another and promoting another – I am always busy! As well as juggling three books, I always have new ideas leaping into my head or ideas how to expand a plotline or character. I use a computer file for new story ideas and the notebook on my Blackberry for any expansions on the book I am working on…I also carry a notebook!
- What are you working on now?
Right now, I am coming to the end of my first draft of my third Victorian romance for eKensington. Tentatively called, The Passion of Monica, the heroine of this book was a secondary character in book two but every time she appeared onstage, I know she deserved her own time in the spotlight. The Passion of Monica has been my most enjoyable book to write to date––hope my editor loves it as much as I do!

She’s ready to take back what’s hers
Since the moment a local crime boss claimed ownership of her family’s fairground, Sasha Todd has dreamed of righting the wrong. Now it’s time to act, and backing down from the man’s estranged son is definitely not an option. After all, giving up her legacy to hot-blooded John Jordon means losing the chance to finally heal the wounds in her past.
Stopping John in his tracks—and resisting the sizzle between them—is Sasha’s best defense. But there’s more to him than she thought, which changes everything. With what matters most at stake, she’ll have to risk a brand-new future with John, or walk away from the man whose heart belongs to her.
