Drowning in Love is the story of Mia Taylor & Travis Montgomery:

Mia Taylor has a huge heart, but just how much pain can one heart endure? Mia was living the picture perfect life, engaged to her high school sweetheart and working at her dream job at an upscale salon in New York City. She had it all. Until the day her past, present and future were taken away, leaving her to face the world scared and alone. Trying to pick up the pieces of her broken life, while mourning the devastating loss of her fiancé she just goes through the motions as an empty shell.

Enter Travis Montgomery, Olympic swimmer and totally gorgeous. He has several medals under his belt and just as many women. Mia is well aware of his womanizing reputation and refuses to be his next conquest, but finds herself coming alive again whenever she’s around him. They agree to be “just friends,” quickly finding that they are unable to fight the attraction between them. Mia’s life becomes complete once again with Travis in it; but nothing good lasts forever, at least not in Mia’s world. Torn apart by an ugly secret, Mia’s heart is broken once again.

When the unthinkable happens and Travis needs Mia the most, she must reach deep inside to find forgiveness for the one man who will always hold the key to her shattered heart. But will doing so only break it further; this time beyond repair?

Tell us a bit more about your central characters.
Mia is a twenty-seven year old hairstylist. She is an absolute sweetheart. She loves with all she has and forgives easily. She’s been dealt a lot of heartache in her life but still gives with everything she has.

Travis is a twenty-eight year old Olympic swimmer. He is a ladies man who isn’t into relationships or falling in love – that’s until he meets Mia. He’s handsome, charismatic and very protective of Mia.

Have you written any other books that we should read next?
Well of course!

The Exception To The Rule is another very emotional read like Drowning In Love. And An Unplanned Lesson (which I am currently working on a sequel to) is a funnier, lighter read but definitely has some emotional moments thrown in (oh and did I mention a sexy Irish guy!)

Tell us a bit about yourself.
My life is not as exciting as my books or the characters in them. I have twin teenage boys and a teenage stepson. A crazy border collie and a cat with an identity crisis. Writing is my calgon moment!
