I don’t know about you, but I’ve been watching a lot more TV during this time of quarantine. I’ve also gone back to my Asian roots and gotten into C-dramas, partly to brush up on my Chinese and also for nostalgia’s sake (I used to watch them with my parents when I was young). One […]
4 Reasons Why You Shouldn’t Read My New Book + #Giveaway
Yesterday was a pretty special day for me because I released a book baby into the world! The multi-author series that Love Pact with the Hero is a part of literally started a year ago last October. At that time we (along with the rest of the world!) had no idea how much would happen […]
Top 10 Cheesy Pick-Up Lines + #Giveaway
Confession time: I love cheesy pick-up lines. Why, you ask? I think it’s because I appreciate a good sense of humor. It’s a good thing I married a man with one, although I didn’t know how funny he’d become with time. (The dad jokes are strong with this one. Ha!) I also believe life is […]

How Does Your Mood Affect Your Book Choices? + #Giveaway
I discovered something about myself both times when I was pregnant—I couldn’t watch intense movies or read about sad news stories. I know hormones were definitely to blame for this. Pregnancy made me extra sensitive, not just physically, but emotionally, too. And how I felt—cautious, protective, and nurturing—influenced what I did. This brings me to […]
What Type of Book Reviews Do You Leave? (+ #FreeBook)
I think I can speak for most of my fellow authors when I say we love it when readers leave reviews for our books. One of the best—and easiest!—ways of supporting us is to let us know what you think of our work. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve gone back to read […]
