Dear Readers,

I came up with my idea for JORDAN, the third book in the Pendragon Legacy trilogy, while sipping a wine cooler in my hammock.
I was rocking between two rustling queen palms when a time machine landed on my dock. And the hottest dude ever strode up
the wooden stairs and pulled up a chair beside me. His eyes matched the blue of the sea and his muscles rippled in the Florida
sunshine.

Jordan.

He’d arrived just as the sun was dipping into the Gulf of Mexico. And did you know that Jordan’s history is as interesting
as his looks?

Did I mention this guy may have looked in the prime of his life, but he’s more than fifteen hundred years old? Did I mention
that centuries ago he fought at King Arthur’s side? And that not only is he a powerful dragon shaper but he knows secrets
to save us all?

Jordan raked a hand through his hair. “Rion told me that you write love stories about the future.”

“I do.” Somehow, I knew this was going to be one hell of a story.

“In the future, Earth will be threatened by your greatest enemy.”

My fingers shook. “Did you save my world?”

“I had help from a smart, beautiful woman.”

“And you fell in love?” I guessed, always a romantic at heart.

“She was my boss.” His voice lowered to a sexy murmur. “And we fought a lot in the beginning. You see, Vivianne Blackstone
didn’t trust me.”

“So you had to win her over?”

“She’s one stubborn woman.” His voice rang with pride, a grin softening his tone.

Oh, this story sounded exciting. Lucan had told me how Vivianne Blackstone had funded the first spaceship mission to Pendragon.
Just imagining such a strong woman with Jordan sent a delicious shiver of anticipation down my spine. “But surely Vivianne
must have liked you just a little bit at first?”

“She thought I was an enemy spy.” Jordan’s grin widened. “And she wasn’t too pleased when I stole her new spaceship… with
her on board.”

Oh, my. “I’d imagine it took her awhile to forgive you.”

While Jordan was quite the man… still… he’d stolen her ship and taken her with him into space. Vivianne must have been furious.
And scared. Although, the writer in me told me Jordan had been good for Vivianne. “So how long did it take her to believe
you were both on the same side?”

Jordan chuckled. “It must have been after the second, no, the third time we made love.”

I swallowed hard. Oh… my. “You made love while she believed you were enemies?”

He raised an eyebrow. “We didn’t really have a choice.”

I gave him a hard look. “Um, look. I’m afraid I’m going to need the details. Lots of details.”

If you’d like to read the details Jordan told me, the book is in stores now. Reach me at

Dear Reader,

Blame it on Willy Nelson. My heroes have always been cowboys.

Whether they’re riding the trail in the Old West or dealing with today’s problems on a modern, up-to-date ranch tricked out
with all the latest high-tech gadgets, I simply can’t resist loving a cowboy.

In my mind, the tall, silent hero of a Western is the equivalent of the savage, untamed Highlander. Noble, loyal, fiercely
independent. Impossible for this woman to resist.

Now add to that a treasure hunt for a priceless fortune in gold nuggets, and you have a recipe for adventure, intrigue, and
romance.

MONTANA LEGACY is the first book in my Fool’s Gold trilogy. Three cousins, long separated, are brought together by the death
of their grandfather, who has spent a lifetime searching for a lost family treasure.

Of course they can’t resist taking up his search. But that’s only half the story. Equally important is the love they discover
on the journey. And more than love—trust. Trust in one another, and in the women who win their hearts and enrich their lives.

If you’re like me and love tough, strong, fun-loving cowboys in search of a legendary treasure, come along for the adventure
of a lifetime.
