It's a spin off from a prior series of books, The Granger. It's romantic suspense and I love including the elements of romance and suspense in a story.

I am writing the spin off from my Granger Series titled the Protectors. It's about the 3 bodyguards that protected the Granger sons. The bodyguards were Striker, Quasar and Stonewall. I am writing Striker's story, titled Forged in Desire. It hit the stores in February 2017.

Creating heroes and heroines that people read about and fall in love with.

In all my twenty years of writing, I've never gotten writer's block. I recall an author once saying that writer's block comes from you wanting your hero and/or heroine to do something out of character and they're putting up a fuss about it, thus shutting down your creativity. That explanation sounds good to me. I guess I try writing my hero and heroines in character. However, I have dealt with writing the story of one hero while another one is in my head insisting that I stop and writer his story. That has happened to me a number of times.

Usually my heroes are in their thirties and my heroines in their late twenties. I try writing stories that will appeal to both my younger and my more mature readers. Once in a while I'll write about an older mature hero.

Shanna. That lead me to read more historical romances by Kathleen E. Woodwiss. The next was her book titled, A Flame and A Flower. I fell so much in love with the hero that I named one of my sons after him.

My favorite romance book is Shanna by Kathleen E. Woodwiss.
Brenda Jackson
My favorite romantic line comes from favorite novel Shanna by Kathleen E. Woodwiss. Throughout the novel, Shanna consistently fights her love for Ruark, yet he continues to love her. That is something she doesn't understand, the depth of his love.
"My beloved Shanna. I cannot think of betrayals when I think of love... I only wait for that day when you say, I love."
