I was born on Long Island, I've lived here all my life and I'll probably die here.  Depressing, I know, but with my stories, I can go anywhere, be anybody and do anything I want...and drag the reader along with me.

One of my major influences were the old Harlequin Romances.  Back when men were men and women loved them and fought with them and won their hearts.  I love larger than life characters.  Characters that you cried with, cheered for and cared about.  Heroines that make you want to be them and heros that you just want.
