The author has taken a few minutes out of her busy schedule for a Q&A about her newest novel.


When did you become interested in storytelling?

I’ve always been a storyteller, ask anyone that’s ever heard me tell them what I had for breakfast. It wasn’t until 2013 that I started writing down the stories in my head.

What was your first book/story published?

My first book was Love is a Fire and it was published May 2014.

What inspired you to write The DiDominzio Novellas?

Well, I was brainstorming with my friend, Dawn, about a Christmas story which led to The King and the Pawn. As I started writing Frankie’s story, her brother and sisters were introduced and I knew they each had to have their own stories as well.

What character in The DiDominzio Novellas is the most/least like you, and in what ways?

Frankie is definitely like me. We’re both loud, independent, and tell it like it is!

What is your favorite part in The DiDominzio Novellas?

Honestly, my sexy Southern sergeant is my favorite part of the whole book and I’m glad I was able to have him appear in each book.

What was the hardest part to write?

Any part involving Vinnie made me cringe!

What would your ideal career be, if you couldn't be an author?

A stay-at-home-mom but we wouldn’t stay home. We’d get out and explore and do all sorts of awesomeness!

Do you read reviews of your books? If so, do you pay any attention to them, or let them influence your writing?

I always read reviews. I love to see how my writing affected readers. I don’t mind bad reviews as long as they’re constructive and I can improve from them.

What well-known writers do you admire most?

Judy Blume and Janet Evanovich.

Do you have any other books/stories in the works?

I’m an author, I always have stories in the works! So be sure to stay in touch with me to find out what’s next.
