The Escape

After four months of starving myself, I wonder if I'll fit. I have to, I reason, as I look at the square box that is the downstairs bathroom window.

Eight thousand and twenty-three square feet encompassing three floors in one of the most exciting cities in the world: New York. Seven bedrooms and eight bathrooms of Italian marble flooring; Brazilian teak-wood cabinets; and ornately-carved, black-iron staircases. The townhouse's luxury is endless in my gilded prison, except for the one luxury I crave: love.

Until I met him, I had never thought of love as a luxury. I breathed it as easily as I breathed air. It was always in plentiful supply - my parents, my friends, my cousins; I was always surrounded by a free flow of love.

So when he came into my life, it didn't occur to me that he wasn't just a further extension of the circle of love I'd always known. After all, he had my family's approval. He was handsome. Successful.

Respected. Ruthless. But the kind of ruthless that was accepted in society. You know, the kind that made people money. Lots of money.

He was everything a girl like me could want. And I did want. Oh how I wanted; more than wanted.

I lusted.

I craved.

I adored.

Him.

I was the luckiest young woman alive. Until ...

I learned to read the signs of the universe. For almost as soon as he appeared, my circle started shrinking. Until one day, there was only him. And love was nowhere near what was in his heart.

Did he even have a heart?

Seven years had answered that definitively for me. Something beat in his massive chest; the chest I'd lain on, loved on, cried on, been soothed on. But nowhere in that cavernous span of muscle was what one would call a heart.

I learned that too late.

Way, way too late.

Autorenporträt

I've been a reader of romance novels since I was a pre-teen. I've read hundreds of them.

"Everybody wants to be loved."

This is the enduring theme of all romance novels. We all want to be loved and accepted for exactly who and what we are.

And that's the beauty of love - it keeps the hope alive in each of us that there is someone out there, somewhere, who will love what is unique about us. This is what keeps me reading romance, after romance, after romance.

Professional Background

I've been a freelance writer - for businesses - since 1993. More about my businesses can be found below.

A Romance Writer Is Born

I wrote my first romance novel in 2013 (3 Weeks 'til Forever). I decided to give this type of writing a try because the title popped into my head one day and just wouldn't let go.

After finishing up several more romances, I realize that I've finally found my calling. I love reading - and now writing and publishing - love stories.

In 2014, I formed Inkwell Editorial Publishing to bring as many stories to readers like you as possible. I hope you enjoy reading these novels as much as I enjoy bringing them to you - whether they're written by me, or by one of our ghost writers.
