What group did you hang out with in high school?
I didn’t really hang out with one group. I was a cheerleader
and performed in many theatre productions.
What are you passionate about these days?
My family! They are my absolute favorite people and I love
to spend time together.
If you had to do your journey to getting published all over
again, what would you do differently?
I would have written more/faster when I first published. However,
that’s easy to say and much harder to do. My kids were little then, and I
wouldn’t have wanted to lose any of that time with them. So I guess the real
answer is: nothing!
Ebook or print? And why?
I prefer ebook now, mostly because I can carry a ton of
books at once and read depending on my mood.
What is your favorite scene in this book?
There’s a scene towards the end where something surprising (a
reveal of sorts) happens. I don’t want to say more than that because I don’t
want to spoil it! Every time I read it, I smile or chuckle and think, “Yes! This
is why I write romance!!”
GENRE: Historical Romance

BLURB:
Jessamine
Goodfellow has spent six Seasons avoiding the parson’s trap, and spinsterhood
is finally within her grasp. A brilliant scholar, she longs for adventure and
new experiences, things her family frowns upon. Presented with the opportunity
to use her puzzle-solving talent on a secret mission for the Foreign Office,
Jess eagerly accepts. Even when it means posing as the wife of a scorchingly
attractive Scotsman who she must also covertly investigate as a possible double
agent.
Lord Dougal MacNair,
the new Viscount Fallin, has always completed his assignments for the Foreign
Office alone. Now he’s saddled with an overly enthusiastic amateur partner. She
possesses a remarkable intellect, but something about her isn’t quite right, and
after two failed missions, Dougal is certain someone is working against him.
Battling their secret suspicions, Dougal and Jess dive deep into their cover as
a married couple, which arouses temptations they find irresistible. Danger is
all around them, but it’s their hearts that may be the most imperiled.

Excerpt One:
“Tell me why I’ve hurried back.”
“A mission to the Dorset coast. You leave in a week.”
Dougal frowned. “If I don’t leave for a week, why am I here
now?”
Lucien hesitated the barest moment. “Because you need time
to prepare with your partner.”
“My what?”
Voices in the hall interrupted further conversation because
a moment later, Lucien’s butler announced the arrival of Lady Pickering and
Miss Jessamine Goodfellow. Dougal was very familiar with Lady Pickering, but
the other white woman was unknown to him. Taller than most ladies, Miss
Goodfellow possessed vivid cobalt eyes that assessed him with a keen curiosity.
Indeed, her unabashed attention could only mean one thing—that she was to be
his partner.
Lady Pickering moved her vigilant gaze toward him. “I’m
pleased you could arrive so quickly, Lord Fallin. I do apologize that you were
called away at this time.”
Dougal inclined his head. “I am always eager to serve.”
“One of your best qualities.” Lady Pickering turned slightly
toward the young lady. “Jessamine, this is Lord Fallin.” Lady Pickering then
looked to Dougal. “Allow me to present Miss Jessamine Goodfellow. She will be
your wife on this endeavor.”
“My what?” First, he had a partner, and now he had a wife?

swan addicted to magic and the female swan who loved him, with exceedingly poor
illustrations. Click here to Join her Reader Club.
A native
Oregonian, Darcy lives on the edge of wine country with her guitar-strumming
husband, artist daughter, and imaginative son who will almost certainly out-write
her one day (that may be tomorrow).
They’re a crazy
cat family with two Bengal cats, a small, fame-seeking cat named after a fruit,
an older rescue Maine Coon with attitude to spare, and a collection of neighbor
cats who hang out on the deck and occasionally venture inside. You can find
Darcy at a winery, in her comfy writing chair, or binge-watching TV with the
family.
Her happy
places are Disneyland, Labor Day weekend at the Gorge, Denmark, and anywhere in
the UK—so long as her family is there too.
