When they finally let me in the "adult" side of the library, freeing me from the children's section, I found a
new world in the tales woven by Mary Stewart, Elizabeth Peters, and Victoria Holt.
Is it any wonder that I decided to spin a romantic suspense tale of my own? Well, three actually: Nikrova's
Passion, Arden's Touch, and Queen's Cache. And they were all released in HARDCOVER!
Recently I revisited each, and ended up rewriting a bit. Currently you can find adventure in England
dealing with a stolen and legendary piece of alexandrite, or you can trail a camera team as they try to track
ghosts in a manor house transplanted from Scotland to the Bluegrass of Kentucky, or dodge a few bullets
as you puzzle out what gunman in the USA have to do with a long lost archaeological site in Arabia.
Have I given up writing romantic suspense? Let's just say it ended up on the back burner. I've got two
different stories in progress, one dealing with a small community that doesn't like outsiders and the other
with a psychic magician who has set himself the impossible task of finding a serial killer...before the man
murders the woman he loves.
