It’s official. I just signed a contract with Cobblestone Press for my story, The Dance. This is the first story published under my new pen name, Kaye Spencer. The Dance is an erotic contemporary story set in Denver, Colorado. Here’s the storyline in a few words:
Janae Palmer, a reclusive city girl facing a book review deadline, is at her wit’s end with her upstairs neighbor, rodeo bullfighter Owen Quinlan. He’s cranked-up his music, and she’s on a mission to give him a lesson in manners. Having fantasized about getting him in bed, she gets more than she’d planned after a knock-out introduction. Owen is more than willing to share in her fantasies, but when his rodeo life comes between them, the words of a song will either give them the courage to go on together or leave them with only bittersweet memories of The Dance.
There’s nothing quite like a rodeo cowboy to get your pulse racing and your heart pounding, especially if that cowboy is also a bullfighter.

I write and write and only to plunge into a pit of plot quagmire. Once I hit the 50k mark, this story is going on a slow simmer shelf. It’s time is not now, but that doens’t mean I’ve given up on it. It means that another story has elbowed its way to the forefront and the characters are demanding attention. In fact, this other story has completely worked itself out in my head and it won’t take me any time at all to write. Translation: less history involved.
