Sometimes love is more than tragedy or bliss.

Ambitious 22-year-old Lexie Waters is intent on taking the advertising world by storm. When she’s offered the soon to be open position she’s been vying for at a swanky advertising agency, there’s only one last summer separating her from dreams of corporate success. Still bitter from catching her boyfriend cheating, she heads out for a night of fun to see her favorite band, Devil’s Garden, but fun turns into utter embarrassment when she insults the enticingly confident lead singer, Van Sinclair. Van is intrigued by Lexie’s ability to resist his charm and secretly obtains her cell number. Shocked but eager to get to know this captivating rocker, Lexie accepts Van’s invitation to see his next show, which requires an overnight stay. The overwhelming feelings that follow take them both by surprise, and with two months left before starting her sought after new position, Lexie joins the tour. As she’s catapulted into the world of groupies and wild parties, she questions Van’s commitment to her. So what happens at summer’s end when time runs out?

What genre is this, and who’s it aimed at?
Contemporary romance.

Everyone who likes a spicy, fun, rock star romance.

Spicy? Like what?
Fifty Shades of Grey or Beautiful Disaster.

Ah, sounds like we’re going to need to know Lexie and Van better – since we’ll soon be seeing them naked!
After walking in on her boyfriend cheating a few days before college graduation, Lexie Waters realizes how quickly and drastically life can change. All of her plans for a future with Jesse Woods are now a distant memory. She decides to put all of the pain and anguish she feels from Jesse’s infidelity aside and focus her energy on the sought after advertising position she’s obtained at Global Inc. She’s on her way to climbing the corporate ladder, and with her college days behind her it’s time to start fresh, without the distraction of a boyfriend.

And Van?
As the singer of Devil’s Garden, Van Sinclair travels the country doing what he loves. With little family and nothing to hold him back, achieving extreme success is within his reach. He exudes raw sexual energy and has the added bonus of being extremely talented. He is continually sought after by women and holds the reputation of performing a ‘one night only show’, both on and off the stage. To those on the outside, Van has it all. On the contrary, a difficult and dysfunctional childhood has scarred him and left him detached from relationships and disinterested in romance.

Tell us a bit about yourself.
I’m a romance author by night, pharmacist by day. I love rock music and the feel of sand between my toes. I attended Wilkes University where I graduated with a Doctor of Pharmacy degree. In addition to writing, I enjoys baking, scary movies, rock concerts, and reading books at the beach. I live in the lush forest of Northeastern Pennsylvania with my husband, six cats, and golden retriever.

You love rock music and you’ve written a novel about a woman who loves rock music…
My heroine is very similar to me, even though I’ve never even met a rock star.

But is music an important part of your writing process?
I’m sure almost everyone is inspired by some lyrics or piece of music and I want to share with you a few words which inspired me throughout my journey to becoming a published author. These words from Going to California by Led Zeppelin played in my mind throughout every step. –

Standing on a hill in the mountain of dreams, telling myself it’s not as hard, hard, hard, as it seems.

What’s next?
At the moment, I’m working on my second draft of my newest novel, currently called Wrecked, to polish it up for submission. Then, I think I might revisit Blissful Tragedy and see if there’s more to the story than meets the eye.

How easily do new storylines come to you? If we give you four random words – Man, Woman, Mexico, Future – can you give us a brief storyline?
When Jason Jensen finds out his father has been kidnapped, he packs his Italian leather travel bag and leaves his Oceanside mansion to head to Mexico and save the day. But Jason is the one who needs saving when he meets Selena Ortiz, the beautiful and sassy daughter of Juan Ortiz, one of Mexico’s top drug lords. Can Jason resist Selena’s charm and risk losing it all to save his father or is his future filled with violent days and sexy nights?
