I love writing characters who come with a ton of baggage. With the romantic comedies, the baggage tends to be things like dyslexia, childhood bullying, and deceased parents.
My contemporary romances have characters who deal with tougher issues, either at the time of the story or it’s something that happened in the past. They deal with love and recovery.
All my stories have sexy times and plenty of swearing.
