"Writing is like prostitution. First you do it for the love of it, then you do it for a few friends, and finally you do it for money." Moliere
Shelli read her first romance novel when she was eleven. It was a Harlequin that she snuck off her mom's bookshelf, and she was forever hooked on romance novels. It wasn't until many years later that she decided to pursue writing stories of her own. By then she acknowledged the voices in her head didn't make her crazy, they made her a writer.
She currently lives in the Pacific Northwest with her young daughter and enjoys serving as President of the Greater Seattle Romance Writers of America chapter. She write various genres of romance for Cobblestone Press, Samhain Publishing and has two books coming out in the future with Kensington Publishing.

Something’s hot in Seattle, and it’s not just the espresso.
Madison’s needs are simple. All she wants are two things: Make Ooo La Latté the newest trend in espresso, and seduce the sexiest cop in Seattle. But things aren’t going exactly as planned.
First, Gabe’s a little hung up on the fact that she’s his best friend’s little sister, and he’s determined to keep his hands off. Second, her shop gets robbed by the increasingly violent Espresso Bandit, and now she’s the only one who can identify him.
Gabe whisks her into hiding for her own protection, but soon finds his heart is under assault by the luscious—and persistent—Madison. But no matter where they hide, danger follows.
On such dangerous grounds, the trick will be to live long enough to keep the flame alive.

The man she wants is the one she must deceive.
Christy Wallace may be a respectable Seattle
Spanish teacher, but she’s got a sultry side. She lets it come
out to play during the summer, when she moonlights as a Salsa
dancing instructor.
Sexy, cowboy Adam wants more time
with her than just a fleeting cup of coffee, but she makes it
clear that if he wants her, he’ll have to sign up for dance
class. Amazingly enough, he does. And Christy finds herself
falling for a charming country hick with hands as fast as his
feet.
Adam’s no hick, though. He’s the owner of Adam’s
Apples, the fastest-growing cider business in eastern
Washington. To his own surprise, one night with her has him
thinking in terms of forever. That is, until he walks into a
restaurant for a family lunch—and finds Christy on the arm of
his brother.
Is there a logical explanation? Or is
something rotten in Seattle?
