I've joined the blogging world! On "SHADES OF SUSPENSE" I am one of six talented ladies, all who write for Samhain Publishing (and other places). We cover all areas of romantic suspense from a lighter tone (that's me!) to the edgiest, hold-on-and-don't-let-go suspense. I don't officially post for the first time until April 11th, but stop by and visit us!
