For Refreshment Only Sundays (FROS) has always believed in the the finest principles of democracy … like equal access to sexy, FROSian men; the freedom of all citizens to ogle; the right to bare arms and abs; and full and enthusiastic participation in the FROS Voting Process. Today, we have two delightful FROS candidates for [...]
Happy Saturday, everyone! Can you believe it is about to be MAY? To celebrate the flowers popping up and the fun that is soon to be had as summer break arrives for the kids, the Goddesses are giving away three books to three random commenters today (one book each) who tell us your favorite thing [...]
As I was reading Susan Mallery’s blog post the other day on A World of Romance, it made me think of some of my various trips and reflect on memories from them. I do love to travel and do so whenever I have the opportunity – the memories for me are such a source of [...]
One of the questions I am often asked by readers is when a favorite secondary character will get his or her own story. Some of the reader requests are a bit surprising. Like six year old Lexie from my first book, Simply Irresistible. I realize she’d be about twenty-two these days, but I still think [...]
Thank you so much to the lovely, talented and awe-inspiring Goddesses for hosting me today. It’s a real honor to be here.

Like this tiny kitty: And this adorable puppy: And this sweet little kitty: And this cutest-ever puppy: Happy cuddly FROS! I hope each and every one of you have the cutest, softest, most adorable week yet!
I am not writing about bunnies today only because tomorrow is Easter and lots of us may be eating them—the chocolate kind, that is. I am also writing about them because it is spring, and they are among the wildlife cavorting outside my window. We have always had rabbits around here. For years there was [...]
I’m kind of obsessed with tulips, particularly shooting photos of tulips. If asked, I would never say that they were my favorite flower—I am insanely attached to passionate about a rose called Double Delight because the petals are photosensitive and turn colors where the sun hits them, making each flower utterly unique. They have astonishing [...]
I came late to romance reading, and I remember exactly the day I started. Sometime in about 2004, I wandered into the romance section of my local bookstore. I had never been in the romance section before – after all, it was THAT section, where they sold THOSE books. I looked at the covers, curious [...]
