How did you come up with your unique plot for your new book Acceptable Risk?
I’m always brainstorming with other authors. I was really stuck on this plot. Fortunately, I was able to
throw out an SOS to a few other suspense authors, and they helped me craft the bare basics of the story.
Acceptable Risk is the second book in the Danger Never Sleeps series. How are the books in this
series tied together?
The books are tied together by the friends who met while in the military.
The beginning of your book takes place in the Middle East.
Did you find it difficult to write about an unfamiliar setting?
I did! No matter how much research you do, you never know if you’ve really “gotten it right.”Fortunately, a good friend, Vincent Davis, was able to give me exactly what I needed as far as detailsabout the location and the military facts. He was a huge help.
You are well known for the nonstop action and light romantic elements that you pack into your suspense novels and were recently ranked as the top romantic suspense author by Family Fiction
readers. What has led to your success?
Wow. I have to say that I was very honored to see that. I have some fabulous readers who are more thanhappy to throw their support behind me. I can’t thank them enough for their votes. Other than working hard, learning the craft, attending conferences, networking within the industry, I would say the absolute biggest thing that’s led to my success has been the people who’ve invested in me. I’ve had severalamazing mentors, including Dee Henderson, Gayle Roper, Shirlee McCoy, and more. They’re the reason I’m published. Add to that the fact that Revell has been an amazing publisher to work for. I believe thattheir support and willingness to do whatever it takes to get my books in readers’ hands is another key element in getting my name out there and my stories read. I’m forever grateful for their strategic diligence
in marketing me and my books.
What is the title for your third book in this series and when is it scheduled to release?
I don’t have a third title yet, but it’s scheduled to release January of 2021.
