His To Love is an expansive novel that grew out of a short novella by the same name. That story was included in the 2022 Christmas anthology, Snow Bound, which is no longer available. The kernel planted way back then grew like topsy and this final reiteration, as a novel, includes approximately 90% new material.

Simon is back and hotter than ever! 💖🔥💖
My winter has been spent re-writing some of my older books. Until late 2022, the publisher held the rights for the first seven books I wrote in this genre.
After I’d revised Simon Says a couple of times, start to finish, my beta readers looked at it and offered many helpful suggestions on how to fix it. I revised it again to their comments before giving it to a terrific editor. I loved the feedback from that exercise and used it to revise a fourth or fifth time. I kind of lost track of how many times I redid but writing demand perseverance among many other qualties.
As the pandemic draws to a close, people are gathering again. Their social skills are rusty but the need for human contact entices many to New Year’s Eve parties.
Finally, elusive billionaire Simon can pursue the object of his desire. Unaware of his interest in her, Sadie treasures her independence as a satisfied single.
Living alone she can do whatever she likes. And she likes shopping. Loves it in fact. Online. In person. Anything for the endorphin rush of bagging the next shiny new thing.
Simon has three basic rules when he wants something: follow his instincts, research the target, and make his move. Losing is not an option. When he learns that Sadie is sliding toward financial ruin, he decides to step in.
Simon’s methods are swift and stern. Sadie is smitten but wary. Her trust isn’t easily won but their future shows promise. Then tragedy from Simon’s past destroys his usual restraint. Sadie sees a different side of him and wonders if she has made a terrible mistake.
This is a revised and expanded (more than 40% longer!) version of this book, originally published in 2016.
