Quote

I write romance because I love to read romance.

I didn't know anything about romance novels until a friend suggested that I try writing one. After I read a few, I realized that my favorite part of fiction had always been the relationship aspect.

I write contemporary fiction, and that is what my readers want to read.

I write edgy, sexy teen romances, and that's what I'll continue to do.

I say, 'I write romance, women's fiction, chick lit.' I think it all fits very comfortably under the same umbrella. Basically, I write books for women - books about relationships: books that make you laugh and sometimes make you cry a little.

I tried writing adult romances, but it just didn't fit my voice.

I read very little contemporary anything.

I've written six novels and four pieces of nonfiction, so I don't really have a genre these days.

I don't write as much erotic romance as I used to, but I think that's just because my writing style has changed.
