Orphaned and reduced to servantry in her Uncle's home, Alyssa dreamed of the day she would receive her inheritance so she could be free of her so-called guardian. Fate has a wicked sense of humor, as unexpectedly, her dream man comes into her life. Everything is turned upside down when he turns out to be a nightmare. She is forced to flee to a brothel, where the auction of her virginity seems to be her only way out. Even that plan goes awry, throwing her in the path of a notorious yet loveable rake. She is not out of harm's way for long before her nightmare returns to reclaim her. My father was a great story teller and always said that one day, he would like to write a novel. My sister is a writer as well, so naturally I'm a dabbler. I thought I'd try my hand at writing romance novels because I love to read them. Romance novels have everything you want, mysteries, villains, wonderful character's and I easily find myself living in the moment with the story. I hope that readers will find my stories as entertaining as I have found so many. I like to mix tragedy and comedy together with a cast of colorful characters that I create from people that I have met in my life. I will visualize a person that I know as this character and the rest is history.I hope you enjoy my warped sense of humor and the stories that I tell. With that, I present you Keeping Chelsea's Secret and if you enjoy reading books in series, check the Trilogy for Brother's In All. These books contain the adventures and love lives of 3 friends during the Regency Era in England.
