Welcome, Shonna! What 5 things should readers know about you? I’m always cold (bring a sweater wherever I go) I live in Phoenix, which is terribly hot, but the buildings are heavily air-conditioned….so I freeze. I’m terrible at remembering names (sorry!) I’m even worse at remembering numbers. Numbers fly right out of my head. I prefer cookies over cake unless it’s a Blackforest cake. Numbers!

Two men only meant for each other. Researching and writing an LGBTQ historical romance: Researching a same-sex historical romance isn’t much different from writing an opposite-sex romance, as long as you start with the assumptions that 1) there have always been queer people, and 2) people fall in love. We have plenty of historical data supporting both those assumptions, so the next step is figuring out how same-sex couples could find a way to fall in love and be together, while staying largely off the radar of a society that didn’t accept them (and, in the case of men, criminalized sex).…
