No matter what I write, it's got at least a dollop of romance. Usually a lot more than a dollop. Whether it is a World War II historical espionage novel or an erotic urban vampire paranormal story, from a soupcon of sensual detail to banging-the-headboard hot sex, there's also, always, romance. Love, if you will. Obsession, lust, desire, call it what you will - but you'll find love in one of its many permutations in my writing.
So I've redesigned my blog site to reflect the basic fact that everyone I write is romantic. Even if it isn't romance. Not exactly hearts and flowers, but more in keeping with me!
There's always a woman looking for and finding love. Sometimes it is with the Prince after she's kissed the lot of frogs. Often it is a devastatingly gorgeous Alpha male who may need to be convinced just how right Ms. Right can be. On occasion, it might even be two (or more) devastatingly gorgeous Alpha males (don't you just love menage?) dancing attendance upon my Mademoiselle. But no matter the heat level, her heart is always engaged. Whether it is a kiss on the hand or a super-hot flogging, she loves the man who does her so good.
Of course I write outside the "romance genre" box - a happily-ever-after ending may be blatant, or it may only be hinted at. My heroines may have relationships before they meet the hero - or maybe they'll have one in between when the hero is out of her life. And she may not meet the dude of her destiny until further along in her story. But a heroine needs a hero (or two) so rest assured he'll be there. Even when it is a genre-bending story with elements of love.
But now it's time to get back to my creative drawing board and whip up a little love-fest! Get my heroine of the moment - an empath with intimacy issues - into the arms of her hero-to-be (a NYC Vampire with trouble on his hands).
So if you'll excuse me ..... Love Awaits!
