The books range on length from novels (60-130,000 words) to novellas (20-40,000 words). My books do have sex between consenting adults. The novellas are mostly ♥♥♥. Novels are ♥♥♥♥. There is some violence and mild profanity.

------holding hands, perhaps a gentle kiss
♥♥ ---- more kisses but no tongue-- no foreplay
♥♥♥ ---kissing, tongue, caressing, foreplay & pillow talk
♥♥♥♥ --all of above, full sexual experience including climax
♥♥♥♥♥ -all of above including coarser language and sex more frequent

Inspiration

image one I purchased from Cutcaster

When it comes to the books I've written, the ones I love to read, I am a romantic of the old fashioned sort. Sure sex is fine in them, but it's never the main thing. It's that emotional tugging at the heart and it's the energy that I want to take away from a good read. When I write, I look for the same feelings. My ideas often come from something I've seen or heard.

One of my early stories was about the world of rodeo, 'Luck of the Draw.' Really the luck of the draw is about life as well as the way these cowboys get their rides. I wrote it when I was the age of the heroine; and although I'd been to a lot of rodeos, I can't say I ever knew a rodeo rider that well. I got my inspiration from books, things I'd seen, and imagination as I thought about what would it be like to fall in love with one of these men.

The other day I came across a video which was created for a song about a rodeo man. It pretty well says it all about what it means to be on that circuit, to regularly pit your skills against an animal that isn't interested in making you look good. The song is very romantic. To me, so is the video.




And if rodeo is of interest to you, give the video I created a try also:
