Tell us about your newest book.

For TV chef Adela Romero, the lights of LA have lost their luster. The grief of her husband’s death three years ago still hangs heavy over her and her daughter, Fabi. When Adela returns to San Antonio for a summer break with her daughter, she learns her mother-in-law’s Mexican diner is struggling. Adela wants to help, but her career is tugging her in another direction. Local food critic David Agraponte has a history with Adela. A history he’d like to rekindle. When he interviews Adela, sparks fly—both good and bad. In Adela’s struggle to put her past behind her, she’s tentative about a new relationship, but David hopes she’ll stay at Romero’s long enough to give him a chance.

Sandra always dreamed of managing Romero’s one day, but her chances of proving herself to her aunt are slim with her famous TV-chef cousin taking all the attention. Can’t her aunt see that Adela’s just passing through on her way to her next big gig? Still, as much as she resents it, Sandra may need Adela’s help if there is going to be a Romero’s left for her to manage. When Adela gets a TV offer that’s sure to shoot her career to the stars, her choice may hold more than just her future in the balance. Can David and Adela find a way to save Romero’s and hold onto their own dreams, or will Adela’s opportunity push them apart?

What inspired you to write your story?

I was asked to co-write this book which is an adaptation from a TV movie. I was able to read the script and my imagination fired up and took off with the secondary character whose story I was hired to write into the main body of the story.

What genre do you focus on.

Christian romance. I love to read romance. Once upon a time I said a book had to have romance or I wouldn’t read it. I also write and enjoy reading subgenres, romantic suspense and romantic mystery

What is the hardest part of being an author?

Deadlines stress me out. I generally turn projects in a couple of months early.

What’s the best part of your author’s life?

Besides writing, I love my writer friends and readers. They are my people.
