Well, that's an interesting question. My first instinct was to say something like Practical Magic or Field of Dreams--because I love them both and they feel like the kinds of story I write. Or maybe one of Lawrence Kasdan's films from the 80s--The Big Chill or Silverado, because they're just perfectly filmed movies--and they both have big ensemble casts. Also similar to my books.

Romance Writers Weekly ~ Childhood Crush ~ #LoveChatWrite
Wow, I feel like I'm really gonna be showing my age with this answer. I didn't really have a lot of childhood crushes--or any, really. I actually recall being told I had to choose one, because all my friends, cousins, etc. had them and I did not. Eventually, I chose Bobby Sherman (not exactly an unpopular choice). I think there might have been a poster involved?

Romance Writers Weekly ~ Walking Out On A Date ~ #LoveChatWrite
Montana Pines Spring Forward A heartwarming romance that will leave you cheering for love to conquer all obstacles.
What COLBY HARTE didn’t ask for at Christmas was his wife to empty their bank accounts and leave him and his eight-year-old daughter, Emma, a few days before the holiday. At a loss as to how to move on, he takes a new teaching job in the tiny Montana mountain town of Pine Meadows. A new start may be just what they need.
CHEYENNE MITCHELL loves her job at the Pine Meadows Resort in her hometown. The trouble is she’s just turned thirty and can feel her biological clock ticking away. She’s never met a man who made her want to settle down. That all changes when Colby Harte walks into her bar.
When their friendship, built on her desire to help Colby and his daughter adjust to a new environment, begins to turn into something more, the fact that he’s still not technically divorced looms over both of them. Can either of them feel safe acting on the passion that flares between them? Just when they decide to take a chance, the return of Colby’s missing wife threatens to bring it all crashing down. But sometimes love wins.

Romance Writers Weekly ~ Where Would You Live? ~ #LoveChatWrite
Wow, that's a tough one. I've already lived in a lot of my favorite places and I have moved entirely too many times to be all that excited about the idea of living anywhere for just one year, if it means I'd have to move again at the end of it. But, ignoring that, and without listing any of the cool places I've already lived in (NYC, LA, Berkeley, Newport Beach, Laguna, Napa, Paso Robles ) then I suppose...Paris, Killarney, somewhere in Sicily (the only one I haven't been to yet). Or, I don't know. Some tiny little seaside town somewhere--like the ones I'm always writing about.
The final book in the Silverberry Seduction Seasoned Romance Series is now available to preorder! TOO GOOD FOR WORDS
Ride hard or stay home…
A phony friendship between an ex-con biker haunted by his past and a suburban mom with an uncertain future shifts gears with startling consequences.
After more than two decades as a stay-at-home mom, Penta Potter’s life is at a crossroads, her future stretching emptily ahead. When her youngest son vandalizes a local motorcycle mechanic’s garage, confronting the forbidding yet compelling owner sparks deliciously wicked longings.
Since his release from prison twelve years ago, Cash Rylance keeps his head down and his nose clean. He has no business aching for a fiercely protective, sweet-lipped, divorced mother of four. If he promises to keep his hands to himself, maybe she will help him be the dad his estranged daughter deserves.
A fake relationship between these two restless hearts seems the perfect route to take…until their improbable plan detours toward a totally different destination.
