Mad Men

Are you sorry to see "Mad Men" come to an end? I am and I wrote this romance novel a few years ago after binge watching the show. The librarian in the novel falls in love with a detective, who bears a striking resemblance to Don Draper, whom she met while on a double date at a mystery dinner show where someone was actually murdered--definitely not part of the act. She gets herself mixed up with some dangerous people when she goes undercover--in spite of his warnings--to help him solve the crime. Humorous and sexy, this novel is for readers 18+

A Fun Romance Novel

Valentine's Day is coming up.  Are you in the mood, ladies, for a fun romance novel?  If so, you may like this story about a librarian in her mid-thirties who must choose between two men: the first is ten years younger than she is and the second is a handsome detective she meets when she goes to a murder mystery dinner show where an actual murder takes place and he is sent to investigate. She has a very rich fantasy life when she imagines herself with the detective and because her dreams are pretty sexually-explicit, this book is for those 18 and over.  If you've ever wondered what it would be like to go to a murder mystery show or what a typical day for a librarian is like, you will enjoy this book.

Monterey Pop Festival and Woodstock

Back in 1968, many of the musicians who played at the Monterey Pop Festival made their way down to my home town of Costa Mesa, California and performed at "The Newport Pop Festival"--which was later known as "Orange County's version of Woodstock."  I went with my sister and my cousins. I was only 13.  We saw The Byrds, The Grateful Dead, The Jefferson Airplane, Steppenwolf, and Eric Burdon and The Animals, and many more bands.

Drawing upon that experience, I wrote this time-travel fantasy about two sisters from the present time who go to the county fair where the concert had taken place, and are magically transported back to 1968 when they are inside a photo booth.  Their younger selves join the other young hippies who attended the concert, listen to the bands, go back to the house they grew up in, and talk to deceased loved ones again.  They even encounter younger versions of their future husbands. But--will they be able to get back to the 21st century?
