UPDATE: The winner is…Steph!

Hello Delilah! Thank you for letting me drop by today to share my new release! And, unsurprisingly, it’s another anthology. When I heard about this one, I knew I wanted to be part of it! My gay romance, Returning to You is set in my Mission City world. The story is about two men who dated covertly in university. One wanted to make their relationship public, while the other needed to stay in the closet – for fear of his family’s reaction. Fast forward half a dozen years and then men are in very different positions. The question was, of course, could they make a go of a new relationship? Especially since one is now a single father and the other is a bachelor who now hooks up with guys regularly. Well, my story is a romance, so you can guess the outcome. Happy ending anyone?
Great. Got the story written, edited, and off to the anthology people (two lovely women whom I adore). Of course, I started working on another LGBTQ charity anthology novella for a project in June. As I was writing it, though, I realized I had another story I needed to tell. And it was a second chance romance story. I contacted the anthology ladies and asked if they could squeeze in one more story. They were like, uh, sure…? So, I wrote Josette and the Count in a couple of hours. I sent it off to be edited and submitted it to add to the anthology Second Time’s A Charm. Now, Josette’s brother, Jacob, is important to the story. Don’t worry, his story is coming soon! How he gets to his HEA will be quite a ride.
I love these charity projects. Makes my heart swell when I know I’m helping. Last year, we raised thousands of dollars for charities that are near and dear to my heart. My aunt is a breast cancer survivor and although she’s recovered, that illness stuck with me. If I can help raise money for Breast Cancer Research, then I’ll happily do it.
As a thank you for letting me drop by today, I’d love to give away a $5 Amazon Gift card to one randomly selected commenter. Are you a sucker for a good second chance story? Or is there another trope that you enjoy? I’m in a bunch of anthologies over the next two years, so I suspect there will be one that might pique your interest.
Thanks, Delilah!
