The two things I enjoy the most about writing are the first page of a book and the last. What's in between is very hard work.
The first book I sat down to write was an historical romance. It was really bad and thankfully no one ever saw it.
Rescue Me' is the first book in a three-book series. Although, like all my series, the books are purposely written so that readers do not have to read them in order.
The expectation was that 'True Confessions' would be my first published book, but that didn't happen. After it was rejected by every publisher in New York and Canada, I shoved it in a closet and went on to write and publish my next three books.
