New Release – The Midwest Series #4: Advance & Retreat

Advance & Retreat, Book #4 in The Midwest Series, is live! I am so, so excited to announce the release of Advance & Retreat. After I finished Touch & Go last year, I was sure I was done with the series. Then Ian Harrington, a college swimmer, strolled in and demanded his story. Ricky, the hotel manager/drag queen Rosie Riveting who we met in Push & Pull and Touch & Go, took one look at Ian, perked up, and said, “he’s mine”. So here we are with the final book for my Midwest

Re-Release – The Midwest Series #1: Bully & Exit

Bully & Exit, Book 1 in The Midwest Series, has been re-released! Five years ago, when I began writing Bully & Exit, I had no intention of it becoming a series. But then Lowell demanded his story be told. And well, there’s no arguing with Lowell. The fourth book in the series, Advance & Retreat will be out on July 14th. As I created new covers and polished Push & Pull and Touch & Go, I realized Bully & Exit needed a little more work. It was a good story but the end had always

Too Many Choices

I’ve been working on the novel “In Mourning” for several years now. It’s finally coming together (I’m over 82k and it will likely end up between 100-110k when it’s complete).

I’ve taken the first 556 words of the story and created four different versions. Each is labeled with the PoV and the tense. Just comment below or go to my Facebook fan group to
