The night before my wedding, I walked into my Vegas hotel suite and found my fiancé in bed with my best friend.
Yeah. I know. World's biggest cliché.
But maybe I should've seen it coming. He's a runway god-the son of a fashion mogul. And me? I'm just the people-pleasing, insecure girl from the wrong side of town, hiding behind a designer dress and a dream.
I ran. Out of the suite. Out of my own life. And straight into the arms of Roman Marinelli-NHL superstar, my high school friend, and the Buck's biggest player... on and off the ice.
Roman dried my tears and reminded me what it feels like to be seen. While I lost everything I thought I wanted-my fiancé, my dream fashion internship, my picture-perfect future-with Roman, I found something I never expected.
Because with him, I don't have to pretend. Not even a little.
But just when I start to believe in second chances, Roman does something that breaks me all over again.
And this time, I never saw it coming.

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.
