Following, are descriptions of some of my completed books: “Little Black Dress” (89,000 word, Humorous Women's Fiction) High Concept: Breakfast At Tiffany's meets The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants Austen, Bronte and Charlie Plume are three estranged sisters different as night and day, with their only common links being that they were named after their mother's favorite literary authors and their shared passion for the movie “Breakfast At Tiffany's.” After going their separate ways following graduation, they're brought back to Seattle twelve years later by a death in the family and a stipulation in the will to live together for six months in their family home. With the will comes a mysterious gift that more than resembles the infamous Little Black Dress from their favorite movie. But unlike every other typical garment, this one has a knack for knowing what they need even if they don't. Not only is Austen facing an unexpected pregnancy following the finalization of her divorce; but Bronte—intent on running from commitment—finds herself in the arms of a man from her past, while attempting to avoid a dog with a penchant for stealing her panties; and Charlie struggles with her career as a recently killed-off soap star and a toxic relationship with her ex-porn star boyfriend, Buck Skins. Everything they believed they needed to find happiness is proven wrong when they come into possession of one charmed Little Black Dress with a personality all its own. “Stiletto For Hire” (90,000 word, Paranormal Chick Lit) When life as you know it consists of a luxury apartment overlooking Manhattan's skyline, servants, chauffeured limousines and most of all...money, what do you do when your parents finally cut the purse strings? Serafina Stiletto does what any spoiled socialite would do…she plays her “tantrum card” and runs away. Armed with a full collection of Louis Vuitton luggage filled with only the bare essentials—her designer clothing and 183 pairs of shoes—she moves into an old boardinghouse-turned-apartment building in Seattle's historic Pioneer Square. But this ex-socialite is not alone. With her new digs come two male ghosts from the turn-of-the-century, and she soon discovers they aren't the only spirits she can see. More familiar with clubbing and shopping sprees than playing ghost buster, Serafina is surprised when she's sought out by the spirits of three women wanting her to solve their murders. Locking horns with a headstrong, hotshot detective investigating the same crimes, she's determined to prove she's more than just a walking ad for Dolce and Gabbana. Shadowed by a pair of meddlesome, overprotective sidekicks, Serafina must juggle her growing attraction to the detective with chasing ghosts in three-inch Jimmy Choos, and keeping herself from being a serial killer's next victim. “Let Them Eat Cake” (93,000 word, Humorous Women's Fiction) “When all else fails, let them eat cake!” That's the theory of Marie Antoinette—admitted control freak and owner of a specialty bakery located in New Orleans' French Quarter—when she's faced with having to juggle dishing out counsel to her relationship-challenged friends and the arrival of a new caterer threatening to consume her business. Desperate times call for desperate measures, so Marie begins experimenting with the blending of magical spells into her desserts, seeming to give those who consume them exactly what they've been missing in their lives. That is, until the recipes begin backfiring with disastrous results. But if she can survive a wedding reception better suited for Sodom and Gomorrah, a wake turned Studio 54 revival and the unexpected job of jumping out of a cake at a bachelor party, she can survive anything...until she learns the one account that could save her business is the wedding of her cheating ex. All bets are off when Marie realizes this time she just might not be able to have her cake and eat it too. “Behind The Eight Ball” (92,000 word, Humorous Women's Fiction) Tallahassee Red has a problem, and it's not just the name her hippie parents chose for her or the fact that she uses a Magic Eight Ball to make all of her important decisions. She's the newest multi-million-dollar lottery winner who suddenly finds herself thrust into a lifestyle she's only ever dreamed of...in her worst nightmares. Seeking to escape the sudden deluge of media attention, solicitors and a deranged stalker laying claim to half her fortune, she turns to the only help she has...her best friend and his touring group of female-impersonators traveling cross-country. In an effort to elude the stalker who has followed her, Tally joins forces with the “divas” by masquerading as one of them. In an unpredictable jaunt that takes Tally from a road paved in gold to the open road with a busload of female impersonators, she uncovers exactly what's been missing from her life—a renewed belief in herself and the discovery that love can find you even when you're a woman, masquerading as a man, masquerading as a woman. “Hail Mary” (93,000 word, Humorous Chick Lit) “If it's meant to be, it will find me. But love must be blind, because I'm standing right here.” This has always been the mantra of Mary Magdalene Milano, a thirty year-old Seattleite with the unfortunate luck of being named after a biblical prostitute. But Mary is convinced love took a detour somewhere along the way, leaving her at the mercy of her Italian-Catholic family, whose sole purpose in life is to ensure she doesn't die an old maid. Following several failed attempts at finding a man on her own and enduring a series of horrific set-ups by her family, Mary flees dating hell for the salvation of an Italian vacation. Traveling alone and actually enjoying it, she realizes having a man isn't the key to her happiness. Yet the moment she accepts this, Mr. Right walks into her life with a penchant for gondolas and kissing on Venetian bridges. After returning home with a renewed sense of self, the next time Mary sees her Mr. Right, he is in Seattle, picking up a wedding dress and dashing off to the ceremony. Having given love one too many chances to find her, she isn't about to stand by and let it drift off course again, even if it means facing an angry wedding party and a possible lifetime of purgatory. “My Alter Ego” (91,000 word, Humorous Chick Lit) Paris Radisson spends most of her free time tuning in to the TV gossip shows to live vicariously through the infamous Hilton heiress who shares her first name. But when her life takes a turn for the worse and she becomes the victim of identity theft, Paris is determined to start enjoying life instead of watching it pass her by. She begins mimicking the thief's actions by shopping in the same designer stores and frequenting the same nightclubs as listed on her multiple-paged, credit card statement. But after an exhausting attempt, she soon realizes a rewarding life is not measured by where you stand on the social ladder. Through an unexpected romance, quitting her dead-end job and accepting a travel assignment dodging camel spit and sand storms in exotic Morocco, she discovers there's a lot more to the real Paris Radisson even without the bling and designer duds. And this time, she doesn't have to tune into the E! Channel to experience each brow-raising moment.
