After I won a TV singing competition and my ex publicly humiliated me to get ahead, I needed to escape reality.
Sure, breaking into an old friend's beachside cottage wasn't my best idea, but what's a girl to do?
When the NHL's biggest player-on and off the ice-finds me in his bed, I expect him to kick me out. When he doesn't, a fragile truce is born.
Soon enough, we're living in our own fairy tale bubble, talking and sharing everything-just not the truth.
As the lazy days of summer stretch on, I begin to believe we might be the only real thing in a world full of lies.
Until his past catches up to him.
That's when I realize two things. You can't build love on a bed of lies, and in this world, everyone wants something... no matter who they have to burn to get it.

I've been reading romance novels for as long as I can remember. I just never thought I'd be writing them. In fact, I graduated from university with a business degree and started working in the Finance Department of Environment Canada...shiver. A few years into my career, my hubby, who's a meteorologist, got posted up north, population 800. I quit my job and went with him. At first all the spare time was great, then I got bored so I started to read. Day and night. When I ran out of books to read I decided to try writing one. After all, how hard could it be. Ha!! Well, you guessed it. It was hard!
Many years later I discovered Romance Writers of America and have learned a great deal since joining my local chapter. My journey to publication hasn't been smooth sailing, but with the support and guidance from the wonderful writers at RWAC, it's been a lot easier. And a lot more fun!
I'm very fortunate to have a husband and two children who have been supportive in every possible way. On those frustrating days when I'm banging my head against my desk I look up to see a heart shaped sticky note on my computer that says I love you because you naver give up.
