              Steamy Romantic Fun!

 

 

 

Welcome to my website.  Although I also write under the name Lauren Kellogg, everyone calls me Laurie. 

 

I confess, I'm a happy-ever-after junkie, which is why I read and write romances.  Regrettably, I'm still just a gonna-be author, but I'm getting close to being published--especially after winning the GOLDEN HEART® award, not just once, but twice.  This is the highest honor an unpublished author can receive from Romance Writers of America. (see photos).  My work also won Pacific Northwest Writers Association’s Zola Award and was a Romantic Times American Title I finalist.

 

For some crazy reason (probably mental illness), I was born with an overdeveloped conscience and felt guilty coming out of the womb.  So more often than not, a theme of regret and redemption runs through my stories.  Wherever my muse might lead me, my main goal as an author is to entertain readers, whether it's through comical situations or simply  with witty dialogue that I hope will make them smile.

 

Three components I enjoy most in a novel (besides the requisite happy ending) are long, steamy love scenes; witty banter; and intense  back stories that keep me turning pages to learn how the hero and heroine will redeem each other through their love. Consequently, it's only natural that I include lots of heat, humor and heart in all of my novels, which are a blend of naughty comedy and romantic drama

 

Regardless of the kind of story I'm inspired to tell, my heroes and heroines always tackle their problems with a sense of humor and triumph through love and support from each other--whether they want help slaying their demons from the past or not.  And what makes it all so much fun is most of the time they don't.

 

And if you're as crazy about steamy love scenes, sassy dialogue, and romantic characters with sinful secrets as I am, keep your fingers crossed for me--and your toes, and your legs, and what the heck, your eyes, too.  I need all the luck I can borrow to help get my novels published and on the bookstore shelves so you can read them!

 

Thanks for stopping by,

P.S. About the only thing I love as much as romance is playing in my kitchen.  I'm told that I'm an excellent cook (which my family members' waistlines can testify to).  So if you enjoy cooking and entertaining, check out my recipe page (which I'll try update every month or so), and don't forget to register for future contests with the link at the upper right  of this page.
