It’s been a while since I’ve talked about my current work-in-progress.  Maybe because the holidays kicked my butt & slowed my writing to a crawl.  And trying to get the word out about PROJECT: RUNAWAY BRIDE at the same time doesn’t help, either.  (Have I mentioned that I’m not a proficient juggler?  I’m much better at focusing on one thing at a time, not multi-tasking. :seesawkiss )

But I do have a new project in the works—something I can’t share too much about just yet, but that I think you’re really going to like. :balloongoingup

And what I can tell you about is the sexy, mouthwatering hero of this Top Secret story. :animpeekaboo

His name is Patrick Flynn, & at the moment, I’m using Christian Kane as my inspiration—because I :lipstick him.  I really, really :lipstick him.

I know a lot of guys—& fictional characters—named Patrick often end up being called “Paddy” for short, but that won’t happen in this story.  I’m not a fan of that nickname, even though I love the strong, Irish feel behind Patrick itself.

What are your thoughts on the subject?

Do you like Patricks to stay Patricks, or do you like a little Paddy in your heroes? :kisssnowman

Happy Sunday!  So how are you doing this week?

Runaway Bride’s Big Baby Secret

Handbag designer Juliet Zaccaro should be walking down the aisle, so why is she running out of the church instead? Because she’s just found out she’s pregnant, and not by her cruel, distant fiancé! Now it’s up to private investigator Reid McCormack to bring her home. But once he finds her, he’ll make sure she doesn’t go back to her fiancé—especially since the baby she’s carrying might just be Reid’s. Even as Juliet denies their explosive chemistry, can Reid convince her that there’s more between them than a baby bump?
