I did something for this book that I've never done before. I created original music for it. Sunny is a singer. Music isn't just background for Wish I Didn’t Want You. It's part of who she is and how she expresses what she can't say out loud. #authorsky #behindthescenes #romancebook #originalmusic

Saw Spider-Man: Brand New Day in 3D this weekend. ❤️ the movie. I think both Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield did a great job playing the role, but there is something about Tom Holland's portrayal of the character that's endearing. Thoughts on the movie? Which Spider-Man is your fav? #spiderman

He was only supposed to be one unforgettable summer. Then he started to feel like home. Wish I Didn’t Want You Official release August 25. #authorsky #summerromance #billionaireromance #romancebooks #indieromance #contemporaryromance ##bwwmromance
