Hey everyone, I’m back! My little social media break is officially over, and I’m ready to dive back in. The first few days will be spent catching up. Things will be a bit scaled back for now, though, because I do have a new book to write! Unlike my others that were mostly completed years ago and just needed polishing, this one is a fresh adventure from the ground up. So, my focus is going to be on building a brand-new world just for you.

Speaking of this new world, I’m currently calling it “The Lattimer Brothers: Trey” and it will be the first of a 2-book set. Imagine Trey and Tony Lattimer, two brothers who came straight from the backwoods of Tennessee, nestled in the shadow of the Great Smoky Mountains. Thanks to an incredible opportunity from a generous benefactor, they built not just a hotel, but *the* most prestigious hotel in New York City, turning it into a glittering empire with clones scattered across the country. Lattimer Hotels were the definition of glitz, glamour, champagne, and caviar, catering to every whim and demanding absolute perfection. They even had a fascinating tie-in with one of the country’s biggest publishing firms. Trey was pure business, laser-focused… until a New Year’s Eve gala hosted for that publisher. That night, he met Cimarron, and it was pure fantasy. But morning brought the stark reality – an empty bed and just a single note. For an entire year, he searched, but she was a ghost, a myth with no last name, a wisp of smoke that vanished with the rising sun.

Now, a year has passed, and another big party is coming up. Could she possibly be back? Will he finally capture the smoke? And exactly how did he end up in Montana?
