The Billionaire Tricksters of Boston series - just $0.99!

So I've been drowning in work and baby duties, though he's getting huge and definitely no longer a baby. I'm working on my latest book, NEVER GO BLACK, which is a departure for me, but is coming along really well.
I've read ALL THE LIGHT WE CANNOT SEE and THE NIGHTINGALE, both excellent books set in World War II. Highly recommended. I've never been so grateful that I live in the times that I do, though I find Donald Trump horrifying.
But enough of politics, my latest series, THE BILLIONAIRE TRICKSTERS OF BOSTON, which came out last year, is currently available on Kindle for $0.99. So if you haven't had a chance to read them, now's your chance!

XOXO Podcast. Once upon a time in New York and "I hate a clown."

So, once upon a time I was a desperately frumpy, recently graduated English major transplanted from sunny California to the fabulous New York city. I interviewed for a job with then editor Lauren McKenna and senior editor Amy Pierpont. Much to my delight, they hired me and for two glorious years, I was an assistant editor at Pocket. But deep down, I always wanted to be a writer, so I moved on. Part of me has always wondered if I should have stayed. But then maybe I would never have been published.
At any rate, I'm thrilled every time I get to hang out with my former boss and friend, even virtually. So recently when they asked me to do a podcast with XOXO After Dark, I said, "Absolutely." So there I was, standing in the lobby of Margaritaville in Shreveport while my father in law stared at me like I was insane as I tried to check in and answer interview questions at the same time. I was surprised you couldn't hear the slots in the background.
It went live today and I listened to the whole thing. I wasn't there for the beginning, where Lauren,. my editor Kate, and another Pocket editor, Abby, talked about magic, circuses, and whether zoos should be banned. I learned a lot. I never knew about the elephant walk in New York. SO cool. Or that my former boss, "hates a clown," lol. Or that my editors get drunk and watch Blackfish and Guardians of the Galaxy. But I had a great time talking to all of them.
If you have a chance, check it out at XOXO After Dark Podcasts. Learn about my Billionaire Tricksters of Boston series, and how the men work their magic.
