Why I Like Romance

Romance is such an intriguing topic to write about. There is something magical to falling in love that has to come about naturally, which is a challenge for a writer. Both characters have to have sizzling chemistry, but also have to have impediments along the way. The best romance pairs two unlikely candidates, two people from different sides of the tracks. Through their romance they learn more about the world and about the people on "the other side." Romance allows people to grow and mature, learning more about the world around them and more about themselves.

Type of stories I like to read and write

I love to read fantasy romance and science fiction romance. I love the fantasy worlds and the word building and descriptions that go along with genre fiction. Playing the Maestro is actually my first contemporary romance without the fantasy element. What I found was as I wrote it, I was more able to focus on the character motivations and their developing relationship. Even though I felt naked at first, it turned out to be a great growing experience for me as an author.

Melody Mires has sworn off dating musicians, but when the sexy European conductor Wolf Braun takes over her struggling symphony, her hesitation almost flies out the window with the notes of her flute—until he opens his mouth. Wolf is arrogant, haughty, and seems to have a personal vendetta against Melody. Oh, and he’s her boss. If she wants to keep her job as principal flutist, she’ll have to impress Wolf while simultaneously keeping her undeniable attraction to herself.

Wolf came to America to get as far away from his past as possible, and to recover some of the swagger he had as one of the world’s best maestros. He never imagined being forced to reassess the entire orchestra’s talent—and potentially fire anyone who doesn’t make his cut. Dating the attractive flutist is out of the question, but as their feelings reach a fever pitch, can they risk both their careers for a chance at love?
