The Winner Takes it all

Currently editing with my agent!

THE WINNER TAKES IT ALL is a heartfelt adult romcom complete at 95,000 words, putting a regular people twist on DANCING WITH THE STARS and tying in the country roots and single parent love story of HEARTLESS by Elsie Silver.

PITCH: In a high stakes dance competition show, live-in nanny, Taly, and her jaded pro dance partner, Sanya, decide to form a showmance in order to influence ratings…but the further they advance, the more Taly begins to wonder if a life with him—and his preteen daughter he hides from the press—is a far greater prize than victory.

Praise for the Deragon Duology!

  • This book had great world building, political conflict, mysterious plans, and spicy tension! The last 1/4 of the book had me gasping and flying through the pages.

    Goodreads Review (The Fall of Jericho)

  • The intricate details that she imbeds into the words she writes can paint such a vivid picture in my mind of where I’m at in the story. The amount of times I was led astray and then BAMBOOZLED on the next page...I felt like I was on my toes the whole time.

    Goodreads Review (The Rise of Deragon)

  • The romance and political drama push and pull really nicely in this book! I love the plot curveballs and betrayals that leave me wanting to strangle imaginary characters through the pages.

    Goodreads Review (The Fall of Jericho)

  • If I could give this book more than 5 stars I would…I didn’t think it was possible but i loved this book even more than the first one!!!!!!
