#ThrowbackThursday - It's not a secret that The Pirate's Treasure is one of my favorite pairings in the Arranged Marriage world. Both Rojan and Petrov became princes, when neither of them wanted that, but they also shared a love of travel, of being on the Kraken's Horn (I seriously need an artist

#Freebieofthemonth - I really couldn't think which book to give away for October, because my new release this month is one of my Quirk of Fates stories. But as I am writing Apollo's story in the Gods series, I guess those titles were on my mind more than normal, so the freebie this month is

the truth and doesn't care about the fallout. Like when he told a group of gathered society members that yes, he was married to Soren, and yes Soren was with Patin and that yes, Jaq considered Patin his husband to, and basically who cares. I think he said something like "It's like no one has

here the correct enunciation of various words. I think that's one of the appeals of writing something like this - a form of word gymnastics where people use ten words when two will do, hehe. But sometimes one of my characters, like Jaq from The Gentlemen's Agreement for example, just spits out

#ThrowbackThursday - one of the things I love about my Arranged Marriage series is the expectations on how people (especially those in royal or society families) behave in social situations. When I'm imagining those scenes as I am writing, I can see the snooty expressions and

I got some lovely flowers for my birthday and felt so blessed. The bunch of colorful flowers is from my friend in Tokoroa (thank you Kelly) and then the roses are from my grandson Malacai. I was so touched when he delivered them for me, and he bought me some chocolate Danish's as well.
