A new love poem!
Blessed
It’s beyond words what I feel for you,
but I always try to capture it.
I can only say I feel…
blessed.
The way you draw me close,
holding me tight,
I’ve never felt so safe with anyone else.
I can only feel…
blessed.
The way you speak those words,
professing your love,
saying you’ll always take care of me,
I can only feel…
blessed to have you.
Looking into your eyes,
a fascinating mix of brown and green,
the way you kiss me and my eyes drift closed,
I can only feel…
blessed.
When you smile at me or give me that gaze full of affection,
the way we work so well together,
even when we link hands and they fit so perfectly,
I can only feel…
blessed beyond measure.
Our hearts,
our souls connect,
our bodies were made for each other.
I can only feel…

New book release and release party!
I just wanted to drop in and announce that Second Nature, book one of the Blood at First Sight Series, will be released on December 9th. Yay! I’m giving you a sneak peak of the cover here, but it won’t officially be revealed until a few days before the release. Pre-orders should be starting up around that time.
I am so excited about this paranormal romance/urban fantasy series. 🙂
Here is the blurb for Second Nature:
She never expected it…
Desiree Edwards has a problem. She’s been attacked, kidnapped and forced to get along with a vampire of all things. It’s something right out of the story books she reads, or her worst nightmare. But, sometimes he’s not the monster he appears to be. He seems so humanlike that she can’t help it when her emotions betray her, when her body betrays her. To make matters worse, she…

Everything to Me
Every time you leave, I yearn more for you.
When we’re apart, nothing feels right until we’re reunited.
I could spend a lifetime learning the many facets of you and I’d never get tired.
I can see the love in your eyes and I reciprocate it.
You show your feelings in so many ways…
You take care of me,
you listen,
you worship my body completely.
I could never ask for a more perfect love.
It means everything to me…
Real love isn’t perfect…
It has its occasional hiccups,
a mild argument or difference of opinion,
the wait to be together,
to become one in a perfect union,
our minds,
our souls,
our hearts together.
But, that’s what makes life interesting.
We are similar in many ways,
connecting beyond the visible,
even speaking in unison now and then followed by a laugh,
finishing each other’s…

Check out my author interview on The Books Machine Blog!
November 19, 2014
TBM: How do you imagine the ideal reader of your book?
ML: I imagine the ideal reader of my book to be a romantic who doesn’t mind bit of history and suspense thrown into a love story. Anyone who loves a good story and enjoys a thrill while learning about new places would be a potential reader.
TBM: How was the writer inside of you born?
ML: When I was young, I absolutely loved the written word! I would pour over books, eating up the narratives within. My imagination was huge and my family would often find me acting out my own stories with dolls and such. This eventually translated into writing stories, and I’ve been writing them ever since.
TBM: What genres do you work with and why are you attracted to these forms of writing?
ML: I write romance because I love showing how…
