My Decadent Journey

My journey to Decadent began ironically at Musa Publishing where I was (and still am) happily writing for the Wiccan Haus series. I noticed that my fellow series authors Dominique Eastwick and Kate Richards both had books out with Decadent's 1Night Stand series. Not wanting to have "all my eggs in one basket" as the cliche goes, I was looking to branch out to another reputed publisher.

I respect Dominique and Kate as great romance authors, and I trust their business sense, so I decided to check out Decedent's 1Night Stand series. The moment I read about Madame Eve here, I knew I wanted to be part of this series. In the coming weeks and months, I brainstormed and then wrote More Than a Fantasy. The day after I submitted it, I had an acceptance letter and a contract. Wa-hoo! I was definitely excited. And amazed. And a bit overwhelmed!

This was in May. Over the summer, I wrote a rough draft of another 1Night Stand book while I was waiting for edits for More Than a Fantasy. Fall turned into a crazy rush of edits and promo. But finally at the end of October, I was able to return to the second 1Night Stand story and revise it. I submitted One Night with the Bride, the first in the One Night with the Bridal Party sub-series, which will come out next month to be followed by One Night with the Bridesmaid later this year.

Meanwhile, my love affair with Decadent has spread beyond 1Night Stand. I am looking forward to showcasing "September" in the Calendar Men series in 2014, and I've been eyeing the Challenge Series and brand new Tease Entice line with great interest. And I definitely have a couple more One Night with the Bridal Party stories to tell. My journey with Decadent has just begun, and it's been a heck of a ride so far!
