The Dictatorship Has Begun!
Happy New Year, cats and kittens. This is a big one for me. My first print novel has officially hit the shelves today!
Dictatorship of the Dress is a new twist on boy-meets-girl. Told in first person, alternating points of view, it follows two travelers over the span of five days. It's a story of missed flights, of second chances...of Magic 8 Balls and Pez dispensers, asparagus and bad Japanese monster movies. It's about wearing flip flops in the snow and collecting Elvis impersonators as you go. And hanging on to your dreams and letting go of grudges. It's the best of Chicago and Vegas and Hawaii, and seats 3A and 3B on a fateful flight.
It may just be the best layover you've ever had.
I am so excited to share Laney and Noah's adventure with you! And I love and welcome all feedback. Feel free to leave a review, scatter some stars, rec to friends, or ask me a question, right on my author page. Thanks and happy reading in 2015!

DREAM BIG!
In the music biz, we call a single performance a "one-off". I seriously thought that my debut novel, Louder Than Love, would be a "one-off" book, but I'm so happy that fans raised their fists, stomped their feet, waved their lighters in the air and chanted "more, more more!" Now they're getting their encore with Deeper Than Dreams!
Just a little insider info about this novella - it picks up the day after Louder Than Love ends, and follows Kat and Adrian through one magical day...and one unforgettable evening. Many of the cast of characters from Louder Than Love make appearances, along with some new friends...and foes. But the true spotlight is on Louder Than Love's most beloved couple! Kat and Adrian have been through a lot - separately and together - so I'm happy to give them more page time.
And I'm thrilled to share even more of the Love & Steel world with readers, as Softer Than Steel releases in September!

SOFTER THAN STEEL is here!
Happy September, Goodreaders!
I love this time of year - here in the northeast, the leaves are starting their golden transformation, there's a crispness in the air, and the kids are cracking open fresh school supplies.
I find it only fitting that Softer Than Steel, the second full-length novel in my Love & Steel series, releases during this season. It's a time for change.
If anyone needs a fresh start, it's Softer Than Steel's hero, Rick "Riff Rotten" Rottenberg.
A non-practicing Jew, ex-Pat Brit from a wealthy, educated background, Riff's probably my most complex hero yet. He traded the silver spoon in his mouth long ago for heavy metal in his veins and prays to very different gods now.
Riff is plagued by the guilt of losing his wife and wasting the years he could've spent with her and their children during a life of hard rocking on the road. Resurrecting the band after its long hiatus seems to be the perfect way for him to fill his empty days...the sold out venues, lengthy tours and fan adoration provides validation and solace. But the time off the road sends him into panic attacks. Not knowing where else to turn, Riff finds himself turning a doorknob on New York's Lower East Side...
Inside a former tenement synagogue, Sidra Sullivan is striving to build her yoga business and heal her heart from a charismatic singer with a bad case of LSD (Lead Singer Disease). She's fiercely proud of her Indian-Irish upbringing and close-knit neighborhood, but lately she feels like she's drowning in the Melting Pot. The last thing she wants is another huge ego in tight pants hanging around, consuming her time and attention. But when her newest yoga student makes her an offer she can't refuse, she has a hard time denying him the sanctuary he so desperately needs.
As Sidra works Riff up to more challenging poses, he begins to wear down her walls of protection, challenging her to see him in a different light. She, in turn, teaches the steeled, seasoned rock warrior to soften his stance and find strength from within.
