The new book, due out in a couple weeks.

Doug Crandall’s perfect suburban life imploded after his boyfriend’s betrayal and a subsequent lawsuit left him personally and financially devastated. A year later, with a new place in the city and a fresh outlook, he’s back on his feet and ready to start over. Eager to lose his cynicism and heal his battered heart, he immerses himself in the local social scene, which includes a pair of charismatic men engaged in an open relationship. As Doug finds himself becoming emotionally and sexually entangled in their lives, he’s forced to reevaluate his views on fidelity, betrayal, love, and the often calamitous price of happiness.

Nice review of Criminal Pleasures at Sinfully Sexy Books.

Closing in on the end of my new novel. Fortunately there is freaking ICE falling from the sky outside so I haven’t been able to do much else but write, so soon I’ll be sending to beta reader and editor and chomping my nails while I wait to hear back. I love the book, so I’m hoping that’s a good sign. Of course there’s always the possibility that I’m completely out of my mind. Will keep updates here when it moves to the final stage and is ready to go out into the world on its own two little feet.

Peace! Stay warm.

My newest novel, CRIMINAL PLEASURES is now for sale on Amazon
When young attorney Brendan Burke opens his first law practice in a new city, he knows things are about to change in his life—though he never expected one of those things to be his sexual orientation. But when he meets Marcello, a sexy and mysterious stranger working at a restaurant in Providence’s Little Italy, he can’t fight his compulsion to pursue him. But while Marcello is willing to let Brendan into his bedroom, he’s stubbornly elusive about his past and his family. Fixated on discovering the truth, Brendan’s passion for Marcello turns out to be far more dangerous than he ever anticipated.

Writing went well yesterday so I thought I was done when I decided to be Goody Two-Shoes and go to bed early. Brain had other ideas…Was up an hour later and wrote until 1AM. This one’s got me in its teeth and is shaking me around like a pork chop. I suspect it’ll be finished by the end of the week and I’ll look like this.
