How did you come up with the character of Emma Taylor?
I actually wrote my novel in first person, then changed it to third person. Emma is my grandmother's middle name. My grandfather always called her Emma. I fell in love with that name.

That not everything we see is what's really going on. Things happen that are beyond our control. Never judge.

Writing exhilarates me. I love creating steamy scenes. When I'm not writing, I spend time with my husband. Watching TV or taking walks outside. I love to watch baseball. The New York Mets are my favorite team. #LGM

How many plot ideas are just waiting to be written? Can you tell us about one?
I have a couple plotlines for two other characters from my Love, Emma series and I have two other plotlines not connected to anything.One I will share is a story of twins. Aimee and Annie. They work at a spa together and want to buy land to build and open their own salon and spa. They hire an architectural firm and a much younger architect, Zach, is assigned to them. He is very flirtatious towards Annie. She's married, but falls in love with Zach. It's a reverse age gap cheating romance, but in this one, Annie, a woman in her mid-fifties, realizes she's polyamorous. She wrestles with how loving two men is even a possibility.
