 Publisher: Kensington Publishing/Lyrical Press Cover Artist: Kensington Art Department Excerpt: A little idea niggled at my brain—like an evil elf had tapped me on the shoulder. “You know, if you give me your card, I could call you if you leave your wallet behind again.” There. His cheeks went dusky pink. I finally got a blush out of him, but hell if I could decipher what it meant. I could predict people’s taste in coffee, down to preferred syrup flavor, but I still sucked at decoding anything as complex as human emotions. “Ah. Um.” He did the nervous cough thing again. “Never mind.” I wiped my hands on my apron. “I’d better get back.” “Wait.” He opened the wallet, plucked out a white card with a blue logo, and offered it to me. His broad fingers brushed mine again as he handed it over. Another barely there touch, but I felt the charge all the way down my spine, like I’d chugged a triple shot. My breath tripped with wishing he’d add a “call me anytime.” Brian would have. But David just stood there silently. Straighter than the Fremont Bridge and denser than a concrete pylon.

Represented by Saritza Hernandez of the Corvisiero Literary Agency  Do you have characters who argue over whose turn it is next? Sometimes when I’m trying to write in first person, the other character will get VERY noisy. What do you do to restore or refill when you need to recharge? Reading.
