Be sure to get your advance reader copy of the compilation of The Beautician and the Billionaire!
When Conor reached the bottom of the stairs, he saw a couple whose name he couldn’t recall being checked in by security. Outside the early afternoon storm had blown on by, which was good considering he’d arranged for tables and a bar out in the garden. He had tents waiting in the wings, but he preferred to be under the starlight. Continue reading
I hope everyone had a great day celebrating with your mothers or being the mother celebrated! I enjoyed the family gathering at Il Vicino which is a lovely pizza place here and in Colorado I believe. I’m still stuffed and we ate at noon!
I did my nails up fancy and wanted to show them off to you. I’m still not getting the perfectly symetrical effect that I see on the web, but I like the results. I tend towards the chaotic anyway.
Be sure to come back tomorrow and find out more about Charisse collapsing right before the party!
I’ve been working hard on Nails for a Billionaire. The view was great at Michael Thomas Coffee Roaster today. I of course had my drink:
And then the Albuqueruque Fire departmanet showed up. Mmmmmmmmmmmm. Next time I really need to ask to take their picture.
When I quit being distracted by the hot men, I got back to work and changed up another pic for my book:
And for all you moms out there:
Happy Mother’s Day!
For lunch today I had coffee. Okay, I put other stuff in it, but it was really the buzz from the coffee that I needed. I sent a pic to my editor and she wanted the recipe, so I thought I would share it with all of you too!
Luscious PB Chocolate and Coffee Frappe
In a blender place an espresso shot or 1/3 cup coffee, 1/2 cup milk, 2 tablespoons of peanut butter, 1 tablespoon of chocolate syrup and 1 cup ice. Blend until smooth. Pour half into a glass, drizzle in more chocolate syup and top off with the rest of the frappe. Enjoy!
But I’ve been in a bit of a writing funk recently and thought a change of venue would do me good. So I hopped over to Michael Thomas Coffee Roaster late in the afternoon and had a mochacinno. MMMMM. Richer than just a mocha:
Why am I feeling my writing is becoming an excuse for my coffee drinking?
The Party is finally here. What’s in store for Charisse and Conor?
Conor buttoned up his white shirt, leaving the collar open. Charisse loved him. He couldn’t stop thinking about the moment on the porch when she’d told him, even as Raul went over the party checklist with him.
“Is this a Picasso party?” asked Raul. Continue reading
With the completion of Episode 9, I’m putting together a compilation of all the episodes for one finished story. I decided I needed a new cover:

Charisse woke up ready to conquer the day, except it was still night. The bedroom was dark, and stars twinkled through the window. The comforter over her kept her warm, which was good since the tip of her nose was cold. She snuggled down into her pillow—the first chilly night of fall. Continue reading
I have something to admit. I never finished the last season of the Gilmore Girls. I know, right? But life happened. It’s still happening thank goodness 🙂 But when I’m not writing, I’ve been rewatching the witty and fun show. I’m about midway through season 2.
Is anyone else out there rewatching or looking forward to the reunion?
Finished off my writing week with a yummy caramel mocha at my new favorite coffee place in Albuquerque:
And then I attempted the water marbling technique for my date tonight:
I think I might be getting better. The pinky seems especially more like what I see on blogs.
Have a great Saturday night!
Yesterday Conor went to Charisse’s room in the middle of the night. I won’t be posting the scene because of the sexy sex. You can read it at:

I will start at the end of the chapter you missed. Enjoy!
Charisse woke up sore and frustrated. When she slipped the sheet aside, she saw small bruises where Conor’s fingers had dug into her thighs. Worth it, except that he wasn’t with her.
She sat up and glanced around the room, hoping for a sign of him. On the nightstand were two envelopes addressed to her: one in Raul’s handwriting and one in Conor’s. She grabbed the one from Conor first.
Dear Charisse,
I’ve wanted to bring you here since I first saw you, but it was a mistake. I have too much past here. I need to sort out my thoughts. The house and cars are yours while I’m gone. Raul will get you whatever you need. On Monday a therapist will arrive to talk to you as well as a personal trainer. You said you took yoga, and I didn’t want you to miss too many classes. Becca’s party is Saturday. I’m having Raul give you an invitation. I need you there with me. And then Puerto Rico.
Conor
