Garden of Lust is LIVE

Sooooo EXCITING… Release Day for Garden of Lust… grab a copy and enjoy a FUN and magical story you will be enchanted with… links below…

 





All my life I have received or been read my horoscope compliments of Madame Jezebel. This one arrived circled with a big green heart and decorated with bright leaves...

 

The New Moon lights up your social life.  A stranger may appeal to your sense of longing and you could be inspired to plant new roots. Regardless, your interest will be inspirational. Follow your feelings when the Moon conjoins Neptune. Use your intuition and have a great time cultivating new blooms. Shine with happiness before the Full Moon. You might even find yourself caring for a garden of lust. Enjoy an energetic glow. 

 

I was never quite sure what they meant.  

This one wasn't any different.

But I had never seen one jazzed up.

 

A heart... A stranger... Garden of Lust... 

Did it mean that love was finally coming my way?

For some reason it didn't seem promising.

Starting on a New Moon and ending on a Full Moon.

Then I noticed small words circled in red... Do NOT fall in love.

Met Gala…Where was the GARDEN theme?

May… May flowers… May release of my Garden of Lust book… and the Met Gala (that was fictional attended by two of my fictional couples)… I have to say that the Met Gala fashions were a bit disappointing… it had a GREAT garden backdrop for AMAZING garden and nature fashions… not what was presented enough… I have a few in this post that I loved though they were NOT exactly what you would see in a garden… not enough vibrant goodness…


This video is how I feel the Met Gala should have been or why I feel so much disappointment…


And here are my picks for the event and most had garden elements BUT nothing really vibrant and fun and exciting… my favorite dress was BEIGE… I have nothing growing beige in my garden…




I expected to see more dresses like this…

But they were subdue like these…










My Magnolia Bellesol character of Garden of Lust would have fit in with her green dress…

Researching Landscape Design

Having fun writing about a female character who is a landscape designer… Magnolia Bellesol… so I looked to the internet for landscape design plans I think she would draw while sitting at her drafting table in her converted carriage garage…

When I did my own landscape design project, I only used a drafting pencil—no color—but if I had, I imagine using colored pencils and some watercolor paints.
Love writing about creative people in my books!

Rest in peace, Dad 💔

Neighborhood with Different Styles

It’s always fun to make up fake locations in books… Whisper Lane in my new book Garden of Lust has old homes and there is no one style of cottage or bungalow… California Eclectic Architecture (Daphne Chastain from DECEIVED)… 













Photos found on Pinterest and Real Estate sites

Love California architecture…
craftsman, cottage, bungalow, Victorian, Spanish, Mediterranean…
A variety on one street happens very often in older neighborhoods 


Inspiration for my new book
