| My rescued pug, Homer |
I have pulled on my knowledge and experience during the five years I was a pug rescue volunteer. I loved the work, but it was sometimes harrowing and sad. More often, we had happy endings. I love writing about
pugs,
hilarious dogs, and
The first two have been published:
While walking her pug in Central Park, Rory Sampson is run down by a bike. She presses charges against arrogant biker, Dr. Hack Roberts, veterinarian. He plans revenge, only to find himself attracted to the sharp-tongued, soft-hearted writer, who rescues pugs. Will he ignore a previous commitment and voice his true feelings?
Here's a snippet:
“Someday, I’m going to
go into a major charley horse from that desk. Every muscle in my body is going
to spasm.”
“I’ll call 911. Every muscle?” She cocked an eyebrow at him then reveled in the blush that colored his cheeks.
“You know what I mean.”
“Come on. I’ve got something new I made.”
“Do you have the number for the poison control center handy?’
“Very funny.” She retrieved two small potpies from the fridge.
“What’s in there, the body of your last boyfriend?” He chuckled at his own cleverness.
“If you don’t stop, I’m going to give yours to Baxter!” At the mention of his name, Baxter jumped down from the sofa and thumped over to Rory, bumping his splint rhythmically on the wooden floor. She pulled a treat out of a bag on the counter and fed it to him.

Involved with an undercover cop, Bess is not interested in a player like Whit. Will chemistry, cooking and pugs change their lives?
A Snippet
Eyes that had been cool at their first meeting were still a clear gray, almost translucent, but now they stared at her with a heat she didn’t expect. His gaze traveled slowly over her body, leaving the sensation of a caress from a warm hand. Does he have x-ray vision? I feel naked.
He
raised his glass. “To the queen of mocha magic.”
