Contemporary Romance
Where Love, Family and Friendship Unite



About Maria
I’m a Jersey-born girl who loves to read and write. Ever since I was a child, I would get so completely entranced by a book that I wouldn’t want to put it down. I love meeting new characters, learning about their problems, and watching them fall in love. A romantic at heart, reading about happily-ever-after gave me the hope that no obstacles were too hard to overcome.
When I'm not writing, I enjoy spending time at the Jersey shore, watching romantic comedies, working on crafts, cooking, and reading. I live in New Jersey with my husband and children and write in my “spare” time between juggling a full-time job and my kids' busy schedules.

Tangled Hearts Series
Meet the DiFrancesco family. Smart, career-oriented women who don't need a man...until they do. Tortured men who need these strong women to make their life complete. Set between New York and Philadelphia, come to a place where family and friendship rule, and love is on the menu. Even the strongest people sometimes find themselves tangled up when it comes to falling in love.
This award-winning series is a love story to my Italian heritage and family roots in Philadelphia. You'll find this series chock full of family traditions, modern day lifestyles, and food. Did I mention the food? Whether it's Sunday afternoon pasta or biscotti with cappuccino, you'll find something to tease your palette. Here, the kitchen is always open and the food is in abundance. So pull up a chair, grab a glass of Chianti or a cup of Cappuccino and Buon Appetito!
