Alien Science Fiction Romance – Yes or No?
I’m often asked what attracts me to writing science fiction romance. To me, it’s the endless possibilities, the idea that other life forms besides humans exist in the universe.

Why I Love Books with Smokin’ Hot Sex
Look, I understand that on-page sex in a romance novel isn’t everyone’s cup of tea. And thankfully, there are a plethora of “closed door” romances and every heat-level in between to indulge everyone’s different idea of the perfect romance. But, to me, taking the sex out of a romance novel would be like taking half… Read More
Judging A Book by Its Cover
I wasn’t always a writer, but I was an avid reader from an early age. As such, I always paid attention to a book’s cover, but I didn’t really spend a lot of time analyzing what I liked about it, or didn’t like, or even what about the cover caught my eye. As a writer,… Read More
What I Learned during Corona Times
I promise this won’t be a long post about how I learned how to make bread from scratch or am now crafting my own soap. I’d love to be that skilled, but that’s not happening. Homeschooling parents deserve an award—I can’t stress this enough. The OGs who actually chose to be homeschooling parents before COVID… Read More
When Plans Fall Through
by Rebecca Brooks In my new release Wrong Bed, Right Brother, my hero Noah Miller is a Type A, pen-in-hand, map-the-course, Total Planaholic. Raise your hand if you can relate. (Me.

What’s Up With Rose?
I saw the tweet sometime in between books two and three in my Accidental Love series. A reader wanted to know: “What’s up with Rose?” It was a good question.

Creating Characters Is for Everyone
A lot of times readers and friends ask me if it’s hard to get the inspirations for my stories. Usually, it’s not. Hard is to find the time and mindset to write them.

How I Stand Up To Cancer By Writing Romance Books…
May 2017. The sterile room, the grim faces, the stretching aching silence. An hour later I was walking out of hospital a very different woman to the one I was previously… Cancer. It’s the hangover that never goes away. It’s the nausea at the end of the evening, and the headache in the morning that… Read More
Writing Sex…and talking about it
“I’m good at the naughty bits,” says my agent. It’s true. I love writing sex scenes. But initially I found talking about it publicly more difficult. Yesterday, I was sitting in a hotel hot tub and my sister mentioned to the couple sitting near us that I was an author. Which inevitably led to questions… Read More

Why did I release Shoshanna’s Short Shorts?

I understand why — spending ten dollars when all you want is to read the one story… Read More
