Sabrina Jeffries! Not only is she an amazing author, but a wonderful person.

It may seem rather silly, but, Go, Dog. Go! It was the first book that I read entirely on my own as a child. My love of reading started with that book.
12-- Where would you go for an ideal writer’s retreat?
I would love to rent a cottage in the Peak District.

Historical Romance—all time periods. Because of the tight edit and release schedule for this series, I’m a little (and by a little, I mean a lot!) behind on reading for pleasure.

I love Star Wars (the original 3)! My husband teases me that I married him for his last name (for the record, he is not related to George Lucas).
15--What is your favorite season?
I love all seasons and appreciate the beauty in each. However, summer is at the bottom of the list—I don’t like the heat.

Spending time with family. Especially now that my kids are grown, I cherish those moments even more when we are all together.

I am currently reading A Duke for Diana by Sabrina Jeffries. Oh, and the TV series, Obi-Wan Kenobi. Both are so good!

Italian! I love pasta and could eat it every day.
19--What do you do when you have free time?
I spend a lot of time tending to my garden. I have several fruit trees, a dozen rose bushes, and a beautiful lavender garden. I also have quite a few varieties of plants that I started from seedlings.
20--What can readers expect from you next?
The next book, MISTLETOE WALTZ, in A Waltz with Destiny series releases in July, and book 4 releases in August. This has been a wonderful series to write and I’m excited to share all six books with readers.
A Waltz with Destiny #2
Shall we dance?
Left at the altar, Artemisia Germayne’s humiliation is made twice as worse by the presence in the congregation of the man who’s the bane of her existence. Why does Nigel Rochefort take such pleasure in mocking her? As rumors of Artemisia’s abandonment—and also the sudden disappearance of Philippa, her younger sister—swirl about the ton, she flees to her elderly aunt’s home in the countryside.
Nigel has always taken his good fortune for granted, so when the woman for whom he has a secret tendre is about to marry his friend, the only logical thing to do is break up the wedding. But his reputation as a rake, together with his well-intentioned giving of solace to Philippa Germayne in a London park, have started yet more scandal brewing. Nigel must first clear his name to assure Artemisia’s affections.
This is no simple country dance or game of seduction, but an unstoppable waltz of desire—and true love.
