My latest Contemporary Romance, Chloe’s Secret is scheduled for release with Soul Mate Publishing this winter. Here’s a snapshot of the potential cover and a short excerpt:

When my cell phone rang the Saturday morning after my carriage ride, I considered not answering. I had to be in the right frame of mind for my mother or I’d say something wrong. I often did and then she’d either get all weepy or fly off the handle and yell.

“Hey, Mom.”

The voice on the other end seemed stilted. “So, are you ready for me to bring over your inheritance?”

“Not really.” My inheritance. Ha. My father must have been drunk when he wrote his will. I never understood why he left me that stupid deathtrap. For a man that never crossed the street without planning the best route, he had really confused me with his seemingly idiotic gesture. He could have just left it to Mom. She would have sold it and that’d be the end of it.

Only I knew she wouldn’t have sold it. She still had his shoes sitting on the floor by the back door and his clothes in the closet.  I wondered if my inheritance was covered in dust as well.

“Well, you’re getting it anyway. Your brother’s in town and he’s going to drop by this afternoon. Sign yourself up for the classes so you can learn to drive it.”

I stared at the phone. She had lost her mind. “Mom, I—” Click. I hated it when she did that.

What in the hell am I going to do with a motorcycle?
