What's the story behind the story? What inspired you to write Full Throttle (The Bikers of Boston Series Book 1)?
Biker romance has always been a favorite of mine, and I’ve been itching to write a street bike series set in Boston that’s fun, flirty, and full of spice. And let’s be real—haven’t we all had a crush or a fantasy about a teacher or professor at some point? That’s where the idea started. Add in a cocky, adrenaline-junkie street racer and a rigid, uptight professor who knows better but can’t resist the chase, and Full Throttle was born.
If you had to pick theme songs for the main characters of Full Throttle (The Bikers of Boston Series Book 1), what would they be?
Great question! I’d say "Pressure" by RÜFÜS DU SOL is the perfect fit. Isabella thrives on control, keeping her walls high and unshakable—she can take the pressure and refuses to break. But beneath that, she craves an escape, one she finds tearing through the streets on her hot pink bike. Diego knows that feeling all too well. He spent his life in the high-pressure world of MotoGP, believing he could handle anything—until his accident proved otherwise. When he meets Isabella, he recognizes himself in her. They’re both adrenaline junkies, but they’re running for different reasons. Diego pursues her HARD, refusing to back down, no matter how many times she tells him no. He pushes, persists, and never caves under the pressure of her denial until one day, she caves to his pressure. It’s their song because, in the end, pressure isn’t what breaks them. It’s what brings them together.
What's your favorite genre to read? Is it the same as your favorite genre to write?
Romance is my favorite genre, of course, and when it comes to subgenres, I’m all about reverse age gap. There’s something undeniably sexy about flipping the script and showing that attraction isn’t defined by age but by confidence, experience, and knowing exactly what you want. And let’s be real, plenty of younger men crave that. They’re drawn to the depth, the conversation, and the undeniable pull of a woman who owns herself and isn’t here to play games. It’s not always about a fling. Sometimes, they want something real, the kind of chemistry and connection that comes with a woman who brings experience and intimacy to the table. And why not? Men have been choosing partners this way for centuries—kings, athletes, actors, politicians. It’s about time we shine a light on women doing the same—owning their desires, setting the rules, and getting exactly who they want.
What books are on your TBR pile right now?
My TBR is pure chaos—steamy romances, books on writing craft, and the occasional self-help read to convince myself that I have my life together. I love getting lost in a good love story, but I’m always searching for ways to enhance my own. So if it’s got heat, heart, or a bit of wisdom? It’s likely in my stack.
What scene in your book was your favorite to write?
Oh, I live for the moment when everything falls apart. The fight, the dark moment, the betrayal—when their guts are ripped out, and all hope is gone. It’s messy and devastating. It forces the characters to reveal who they truly are when there’s nothing left to hide behind. Without the heartbreak, the reconciliation wouldn’t hit as hard, and without the gut-wrenching fallout, the love wouldn’t feel as earned. There’s something deeply satisfying about pushing characters to their absolute breaking point, making them question everything, including each other, before they fight their way back together. Honestly, maybe I should be writing classics instead of steamy, happily-ever-after romances, but where’s the fun in that? I’d rather emotionally destroy my characters and make them earn their happy ending. Best of both worlds.
Do you have any quirky writing habits? (lucky mugs, cats on laps, etc.)
I keep it simple—I write on a laptop only. I tried the whole multiple screens and fancy keyboard setup, but I can’t be that rigid. I need to be able to move, shift, and let the story flow without feeling locked into a desk. When the Houston heat isn’t unbearable—basically, only in spring and winter—I love writing poolside with my bulldog chasing lizards or sunbathing on a lounger. Something about the fresh air, clear water, and sounds of nature keeps my creative juices flowing. Music is essential for the most intense or intimate scenes. It sets the mood, deepens the emotions, and makes the story feel even more alive. When it comes to action-packed moments, I usually dictate them. Keeping my hands free lets me act out the movement in my head, gesturing, pacing, and feeling the momentum so the energy translates straight onto the page. It’s taken me time and a few books to learn this about myself, but now that I do, the words flow.
Do you have a motto, quote, or philosophy you live by?
Bitches Get Stitches is my war cry. It means leaving it all on the table, going all in, and never playing it safe. Chasing your dreams isn’t for the faint of heart. It takes guts, grit, and the kind of tenacity that won’t take no for an answer. When doubt creeps in, when quitting looks easier, when the world tells you to sit down—you stand the hell up and go in harder. Because sometimes you’ve got to be ruthless, sometimes you get knocked on your ass, and sometimes you bleed for it. But you take the hit, get stitched up, and get back in the game. No fear. No quitting. No walking away. Just the relentless, unapologetic pursuit of your dreams. That’s how you win. Because why? Bitches Get Stitches, that’s why.
If you could choose one thing for readers to remember after reading your book, what would it be?
Age is just a number. We’re never too old for a new romance, a fresh start, or a bold reinvention. Passion, desire, and ambition don’t have a timeline—they belong to those fearless enough to chase them. Life isn’t about waiting for the right moment; it’s about creating it. Own your power, embrace what sets your soul on fire, and never shrink yourself for anyone. Whether it’s love, success, or a wild, unexpected detour, go for it. Because the best chapters? They’re still ahead.
