What’s the story behind the story? What inspired you to write Search for Complete?
I was inspired to write this story after a conversation my husband and I had had over brunch with some friends, the husband commented on how similar I was to his wife, and that when I spoke, he could swear I was his wife talking. This got me to think about a man who possessed both a male and female essence.
If you had to pick theme songs for the main characters of Search for Complete, what would they be?
For Christopher it would be A Lark Ascending by Vaughn Williams. For Laura it would be Lover Fool by the Cardigans.

Upside Down, by N.R. Walker & Not That Complicated, by Isabel Murray.
What scene in your book was your favorite to write?
There are several but the most emotional scene to write was the New Year’s Eve scene when Christopher and David become romantic lovers.
