Q: What inspired the story behind your first novel?

A: My first published novel was inspired by the song "Three Kisses of Love" by the Beatles. 

Q: Where do you get ideas for your novels?

A: Almost anywhere, though songs are the most popular spark for me. I hear a song which immediately makes me think of situations and characters the song could have been based on or how a twist can be added. I love having a theme song for my stories! 

Q: Who are some of your favourite authors, and why?

A: I am a huge fan of Jane Austen, Charlotte Bronte and Elizabeth Barrett Browning (her poetry makes me swoon). I read across genres but have an affinity for romance in all its forms, i.e. paranormal romance, contemporary romance, erotic romance, gothic romance. I'm also a fan of Stephen King, Dean Koontz, Judith Krantz (author of the first adult novels I ever read), Jackie Collins (yes really!), Stephanie Meyer (she dazzles me okay!), J.K. Rowling, Maggie Shayne, Rhyannon Byrd, Susan Mallery and Becca Fitzgerald.

Q: Are you heroes good or bad guys?

A: I love alpha male bad boys with hidden hearts of gold.

Q: Do you read erotic romance?

A: Yes, yes oh yes! It’s my favorite genre. Mix it with some paranormal activity and I’m in heaven.

Q: Do you cross genres in your stories?

A: I tend to stick to romance as for me every story should have love, sex and/or magic. Else what’s the point?
