I have been so busy of late, working on a new book. I am hoping to have one out by April. How wonderful that would be. I feel it has been a while since my last published book, so it is about time I have another one come out. The title is Forever Mine and I hope everyone enjoys it once it is out.  The book is all about love, of course. Romance is my passion, so I will continue to write as many love stories as I can. It is the second book in the Stapleton series. So, pick up the first book, Foolish love, so you can further…

It can be scary sometimes to show those you love the real you. Who we are plays a huge part in every relationship. It is important that our partners and those we love to see you for who we are. Especially in a relationship of love, how can we know if it is true love, if we do not show our partner who we truly are. I say that we should always be who we are no matter the person that we are. Yes, we can always improve on who we are, but we need to start somewhere. And what one person does not like with you another may love…

I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and the new year is just around the corner. Enjoy this time of the year to spend with family and friends and with all those you love. And start the new year on the right foot, with hopes and goals. Try to find time to spend with those you care about as well as enjoy the year 2025. Make this new year full of memories and fun. And find time for a bit of romance too. Happy holidays.

One thing I like about Christmas is being around people you care about. Christmas is all about those you care for. It is more than buying presents or all the decorations. It is about togetherness. Taking the time to be with those you love. This is something we should do all year around, yet many do not take the time to spend with those they care about. Love is a great thing, but what is love if you do not take the time to enjoy the person you are with. Christmas is a good reminder to spend quality time with those you live with and enjoy each minute you have…

I cannot believe how fast this year has gone. I have been so busy with all the Christmas things to do, that I was even forgetting my blogs. This year has been quite a year, and this Christmas time is just as full and amazing. One thing I love to do during the Christmas season is going to all the Christmas markets. I love looking at all the things that people can create during Christmas time. The lovely decorations, the exciting new things that I have not seen before. Even trying new flavors or old ones is fun. Christmas will always remain my favorite time of year. So, take out…

Although we are not in December yet, we are close enough to start experiencing all that beautiful Christmas magic. How much I love Christmas. Everything that has to do with Christmas is fun. One thing that I find a wonderful time to do this time of year is looking at Christmas lights.  Walking down the street at night, when there is a fresh coat of snow on the ground, looking at the lights, is a very romantic way to spend time with your partner. And it costs nothing but time. I always say to everyone I know, it is not the amount of time spent but the quality of the…

I have always thought that every relationship is a give and take. You cannot have a good relationship with always being the one giving or taking. It must be shared between the two people. We need to find partners who are there to pick us up when we need support as much as we should pick them up when they need support. A partnership is a relationship, it means sharing burdens and triumphs.   I want to be with someone who will pick me up when I need support, someone who can see past my worries or fears and can patiently reassure me throughout any issue I come across. I…

Listening is a skill that I believe most people do not use to its full potential. Listening is an important part of a relationship because it allows you to know where you stand with the other person. However, you need to know how to listen effectively. Anyone can use their ears to hear what others are saying, but a part of listening is actually retaining the information that the other person shared with you. Listening is also hearing how the person feels while they are speaking. Effective listening is not just hearing, it is much more. In a relationship, it is important to listen effectively to your partner because they…

Have you ever wondered about when you are in an argument with your partner and how this sometimes works? Yes, sometimes we argue because someone did something wrong and they do not want to take responsibility for it. Yet most arguments, I firmly believe, are because we just see things differently. Different perspectives on issues will cause us to argue with our partners. But instead of arguing, why not see it from their side of things? If both partners in an argument would take the time to see things from the other, the arguments would not last long because there would be more understanding about each other and why we…
