I woke up to an email from my editor in London that Untouched Until Her Ultra-Rich Husband has been accepted for publication in Jun 2019. (Yay!)
I would have loved to crack some champagne, but it was seven in the morning and I had to drive over the pass for an all-day car appointment. I still haven’t had any alcohol, but I managed to spent two hours setting up this book on my website as Untouched BY Her Ultra-Rich Husband. Which is probably a book that exists or will one day, but my title is UNTIL. I think I’ve caught all the places where I had it wrong, but if you spot the typo anywhere, please tell me.
I don’t have a blurb yet, but basically Gabriel inherits his grandmother’s fortune and becomes the world’s first trillionaire. Then he learns he has also inherited a virgin.
His grandmother was planning for him to marry Luli–who just wants to get to America. This might be a win-win if he can keep his hands off her. #Spoileralert: He can’t. And doesn’t.

Sheikh’s Princess of Convenience should be arriving on your eReader today. If not, you’ll find it on all your favourite eBook retailer sites.
Sheikh’s Princess of Convenience is book three in the Bound by the Desert King quartet, a multi-author quartet I wrote with Tara Pammi, Maya Blake and Caitlin Crews. (Learn more about how this quartet came about in my Author Notes.)
Here’s what readers are saying on Goodreads:
“It’s a classic Harlequin with a little more HOT scenes involved.”
“The characters are both quite feisty, and watching them come together and attempt to fight their attraction at the same time as they are giving in to it is quite a fun endeavor!”
One of my favourite parts about writing this book was figuring out how to plant clues that Galila could discover to reveal the identity of her mother’s lover (who happens to be Karim’s father.) I took inspiration from a pair of bookends I found online and had Galila pair them up:
Karim will do anything to protect his kingdom
Even blackmail Galila into marriage!
Sheikh Karim is as ruthless as the harsh desert that forged him. Entertaining bubbly Princess Galila at a royal wedding seems frivolous…until she reveals his family’s darkest secret. To protect their honor, Karim must seduce Galila into silence! The raw heat of their encounter stuns him…and inspires a more permanent solution. To prevent a scandal, Karim will make impetuous Galila his convenient bride!

Thank you, Thank you, Dear Reader, for picking up His Mistress with Two Secrets last week. Boy, did you make a splash with it!
I was thrilled when I saw that lovely orange Bestseller tag on Amazon.
It reached #1 in Mothers & Children and got all the way to #18 on Kindle overall. That is a huge deal!
To put it in perspective, for one night, my book was only 17 spots behind Bob Woodward’s book, Fear.
Color. Me. Astonished.
Today I learned it also made the USA Today Bestseller list. What, what, what?
Thank you, thank you, Dear Reader. You rock my world!

You might have noticed that A Virgin for the Billionaire’s Revenge has undergone a small revision. It’s now A Virgin to Redeem the Billionaire.
This is Book One in my earring duet, the one I’m calling Barsi on Fifth for the jewelry story where the two heroines, cousins Gisella and Rozalia, design custom jewelry while searching for their grandmother’s lost heirloom earrings.
No cover on this one yet, but here’s the blurb:
He’ll make her pay…
Until he learns of her innocence!
Self-made billionaire Kaine Michaels has just given Gisella Drummond, daughter of one of New York’s most influential dynasties, a shocking ultimatum: use her spotless reputation to save his own or he’ll ruin her family for betraying him! Kaine knows Gisella wants him, and he knows how much pleasure he can give her! But uncovering sweet Gisella’s virginity makes Kaine want her for so much more than revenge…
A Virgin to Redeem the Billionaire comes out March 2019. Preorder here.
