Over the years, the body of work has grown somewhat cumbersome. Thus, I began creating book-length collections, each including three novellas linked by a friend group, profession, or theme. These are available as e-books only at Amazon.

RHYTHM: Three F/M novellas set in the world of professional ballroom dancing.

OVERSWAY - Michelle Walker is getting a second chance to make a career out of dance. When her ballroom partner sends her to costume designer Kenji Matsumoto, she gets a new chance at love. (set 2011-2012)

THE CONTINENTAL - Elena Hernandez has a plan to open her own dance studio in her hometown. Then she meets filmmaker Tony Benedetti, and decides home is where the heart is. (set 2013-2014)

WHEN IT’S TIME - Latin ballroom star Hiro Miyazaki moved to Los Angeles to start a new chapter in his career. Meeting Kristine de la Cruz means a new start on the personal side, too. (set 2017)

FROM THE ASHES: Three novellas about love after loss.

BENCHWORK - A biological-clock romance. When yet another prospect turns out to be a player, Charlene turns to the man beside her in the coffee shop. Juan’s whole life is about making things; making a family with Charlene seems like the second chance he never thought he’d have. (F/M; set in 2014)

BREATHING SPACE - A new-beginning romance. Paul is looking for the perfect piece of miniature art for his new project. Connecting with the artist wasn’t part of the plan. But he and Kevin have all the right things in common. (M/M; set in 2014)

REVIVAL - A perfect-fit romance. A year after losing her husband, Serena is trying to find her groove again. Dinner with the guy at the bar seems like a good start. Especially since Aaron wants only and exactly what she has to offer. (F/M; set 2017-2018).

UNLOCKED: Three F/M novellas with main characters linked by friendship.

SET DRESSING - Jeweler, designer, and embellishment expert Lucy Patterson is expecting only a business meeting when her friend Andy hooks her up with Nick Hanover.

 DRAWN OUT - Tina Pascual is in a full rage when she meets Reza Naderi at the film festival. Her collaborators have screwed her over, and she’s looking to take the edge off. Reza only meant to invite Tina to dinner. Then he kisses her in the bar, and things happen. Tina wouldn’t be averse to them happening again … except all Reza talks about is a project. (set 2016-2017)

 THE WHOLE TRUTH - Stella Liu is out celebrating the opening of her new law office when she meets Frank Cavatini. Frank buys her a drink, and then buys her dinner.

(set 2010-2018)

LIFT - Karen Scott asks dancer Zach Tyler to leave her yoga class because his mid-life crisis is giving everyone else the jitters.
