What’s your favorite down-home family style meal?
My NEW favorite down-home family meal is a chicken casserole that is very much like a pot pie but without the crust. It’s made with a few simple ingredients. The recipe calls for cooked chicken breast. My local grocer makes an AWESOME roasted chicken breast. I use his. For a vegetable, I use steamed broccoli or steamed mixed vegetables. I made a white sauce and instead of melting cheddar cheese, I use goat cheese. I was surprised when this recipe added cooked white rice. It was a delicious addition. To top it all off, season panko toasted are sprinkled on top. Put it in the oven for twenty minutes and eat. My family calls this the limousine meal. You can stretch it to last for a few days!
What is your go-to meal when you dine out?
I have two go-to meals. They are meals I do not make myself. Burritos at the Blue Moon Café. AWESOME! The new addition is Bao, a Chinese dumpling that has soup inside.
Who is your “book boyfriend” (that hottie you read about and drool over)?
I am fickle. I have a tendency to fall ‘in love’ with the hero of the book I’ve just read. This week it is Lord Ingram in Sherry Thomas’ Lady Sherlock series. Although, The Earl of Wrexford in Andrea Penrose’s Wrexford and Sloane Mysteries is a very close second.
When you read for pleasure, what kind of books do you choose?
I really enjoy Historical Mystery stories. I’ve been reading books by Sherry Thomas and Andrea Penrose. As soon as I get through those series I may read Carla Simpson, Darcie Wilde, or Deb Marlowe
If the hero of your latest book called you on the phone, what would be a perfect ringtone for him?
‘Secret Agent Man’ This is the ring I have on my phone for my son. He has top secret security clearance where he works. Almost all the heroes in my Regency series, The Ladies of Sommer-by-the-Sea are agents for the Crown.

Why did you write this book?
All the stories in this series, The Ladies of Sommer-by-the-Sea are about strong women and the men who deserve them. I read a story about Dr. James Barry, a Regency surgeon who was commissioned in 1813 and served in the British Military and became the Surgeon of the Forces. Dr. Barry died in 1859, serving nearly fifty years. It wasn’t until the doctor was being prepared for burial that it was discovered that Dr. Barry was a woman. The story, The Lady and the Earl is about a female doctor.
What is your favorite genre to read?
I enjoy reading historical mysteries. Sherry Thomas’ The Lady Sherlock Series is fantastic! I also enjoy reading historical romance and fantasy. I also enjoy adventure stories. All my books have some element of adventure. My pirate and medieval stories have epic fights. It parallels the conflict the hero and heroine find themselves in. You can be sure to find that to win those battles they must work together to be successful.
Who is your favorite character from fiction (not including your own)?
This is a difficult question. I love Claire in Outlander, Captain Blood (maybe that’s just Errol Flynn), Captain Jack Sparrow in Pirates of the Caribbean (he’s so checky), and there is always Mr. Darcy. I could go on…
What are you working on at the moment?
There are several projects that I’m working on. I am just finishing the last book, The Lady and the Rogue, in my series, The Ladies of Sommer-by-the-Sea. This story is about a concert pianist and how music is used to send coded messages. It will be released this August. I’ve just completed a short story for an anthology, The Lady and the Flame, that will be out in September. I am also putting my toe in the more steamy series, with a short story in a Lyon’s Den anthology, a Dragonblade Publishing-connected world that will release in August. That has kept me busy!
What books will we see from you in coming months?
The Lady and the Rogue will release in August. Lady Euphemia Brandt, a concert pianist is recklessly out by herself after dark and is accosted by an English nobleman and blames herself for being mistaken for a “lady of the night.” She fights him off knocking him out, but in the process loses her reticule. Without a choice she ‘borrows’ coin from her unconscious attacker and hires a carriage home. She tells no one about the incident. At a party for the Prime Minister, she sees the very rogue who attacked her and realizes he is one of the wealthiest men of the ton. How does she explain her aversion to the advances of the most eligible and sought-after bachelor without giving away what happened?
