​​My inspiration behind the second book to Bad Boy Prison Romance.
I always knew that I would write a second book to the Bad Boy Prison Romance, I had a storyline in mind.
I wrote it down right after I wrote Hans. Of course, I wrote several books in between that time. Yet, I
have never forgotten about the second book. The second book is about second chances at love.
The main character is Axel Gray he is a hard ass on the outside but inside he is a kind-hearted person. He
is a man that wants love, success, and a place to call home. But sometimes life doesn’t always ask us
what we want.
Finding a person to fit the image I had in mind was a very hard thing to do. I search all my
platforms for months and I finally found him. He fits the role to a tee. He is hard on the outside but
sweet on the inside. His name is ……... (You didn’t think I was going to tell you? HAHA!) Now that I had
Axel out of the way I needed to find Stacy Steele.
She is a woman that is feminine yet strong when she must be. At one time she believed in love but then
she was robbed of it. Her heart has been closed off to ever having a second chance at love again. I
watched my platforms for Stacy but nothing, until I came across Friday Night Lights. Then I saw Stacy. I
knew right away that I had found her. (Yes, I will tell you her name) her name is Minka Kelly.
Now that I had Axel and Stacy out of the way I needed to find a town that would fit the image that I had
in mind. One night I was talking to my husband Dwayne and that about his hometown. It was then that I
realized I found what I was looking for. Mammoth Arizona is a small one-horse town population about
1900 people.
Ax- Bad Boy Prison Romance Coming Soon!!

The Guthrie Sisters Series 



Guthrie Sister Series was inspired by several things. So I have chosen just a few. When I went to Guthrie Oklahoma I walked the streets and got a feel of the town's history also allowing the birth of the characters. I wanted each sister to have her own identity and story. Each sister starts out in Guthrie then quickly moves to a new city. 

Lillian starts out in Guthrie and quickly moves to Dodge City. Because I wanted to feel the steps of my characters'  I went to Dodge City with my husband. We went to a Christmas ball dance that was model after the 1890s. Lord we learned dances from that time. I even danced with Wyatt Earp haha. We heard stories from the era around a campfire. Even ate food that the church ladies had prepared for the event. Truly I was in my element. Here is a picture of my husband and I in Dodge city!


​

​​Lillian's personality is a lot like myself. I chose her to be a Harvey Girl and housekeeper. She falls in love with a man that carries a scar on his hand. My husband carries a scar on his hand as well. Here is a historical picture of some Harvey girls. I could romanticize over old historical pictures for hours!

​Annabel like Lillian went to Dodge City. Annabel worked in The Long Branch Saloon. I had the honor of having a drink at the same saloon.  Annabel is a lot like my young sister Shannon, both are firecrackers. Annabel's story was also modeled after a saloon girl's true-life story Lottie Johl. Lottie's life story is very sad. If you ever want to know more about her story lookup Bodie California. You won't be disappointed. Take a look at  her confidence radiating out of this picture.

Well, that leaves us to Rebekah which reminds me of a lot of my younger sister Heather. Rebekah like her sisters leaves Guthrie joining one of the famous women that started the temperance movement Carrie Nation. Rebekah ends up in Caldwell Kansas. I had not been there both so I had the honor of meeting up with some Belles that showed me the history of Caldwell. As I walked the streets listening to the Bellas  I felt Rebekah's story come to life. 
Rebekah's personality is a lot like my youngest sister Heather both are protective and fierce when it comes to family. Rebekah sings with the voice of an angel, just like my sister Heather.  I truly love this series. ​ Check out these sweet Belles below!

​​Beyond the Stars
​
Beyond the Stars was inspired from one night at the 101 wild west rodeo in Ponca City Oklahoma. As I sat in the stands with my husband I had no intention to do a story. Although I do carry an idea book in my purse just in case I run into something that interests me.  
As the rodeo started my attention quickly went to a  cowboy Jerome Schneeberger. I  didn't know much about the man. Actually to this day, I have never met him.  His performance in the arena was amazing from the way he carried himself and his horsemanship. Throughout the night I notice how people reacted to him, how they greeted him with handshakes and smiles slaps on the back. He was definitely admired by many. I thought to myself he would be a great character. 
That night I went home and the story of Beyond the Stars was birth.

​​My C-Popstar

My C-Popstar was inspired by two famous celebrities Vannes Wu and Aimee Teegarden. I had watched a movie one night that Vanness Wu starred in "Autumn's Concerto". It was a great show. 

I was not aware of who Vanness Wu was until that day.
That night I had dreamt My C-Popstar. Waking up the next morning I wrote it down and within a few days, My C-Popstar was complete. What you read is literally how my dream played out. I honestly felt that you never know who your soulmate will be. God can place your other half in a different country. It's up to us to be open to such a blessing.
I truly love this sweet Popstar romance. It is one of my favorites. I'm currently writing My C-popstar 2.
