My dream has finally become a reality with the release of my novel, Blinded By Passion. I'm currently writing my second novel, another full length contemporary, which will be finished within the next three months or so.About Blinded By PassionBeautiful fashion designer, Catherine Sheldon, has always devoted herself to her career.

The first man, William Moorehouse, a charming, smooth talking real estate developer wines and dines her until she can't help but fall in love with him. The second man, Justin Scott, a soft-spoken architect, whose down to earth attitude about life draws her closer and closer to him exploding into a world of heart wrenching sexual tension.Take a heartfelt journey with Catherine as she gets caught in a world of passion and desire during her quest to find true love.Readers everywhere are asking...Which man will win her heart?Want to Read The First 5 Chapters of Blinded By Passion...All You Have To Do Is Join Shelley's Yahoo Group.

Castle Reader Review on Amazon.com"...I can say that the more I read, the more I became infatuated with Blinded By Passion and I honestly didn’t want the story to end. I felt Catherine’s indecision and felt her pain and that to me is what reading a good book is all about. For a highly emotional, well told story I joyfully recommend Blinded by Passion!" -Joyfully Reviewed

My Interests

Reading and creating stories, hanging out with family and friends, having barbeques and swim parties, going to the spa, taking care of our Jake Russell terrier, and meeting new people. I also simply love the water and visiting places that have warm climates where I can go boating, swim, scuba dive, snorkel or just hang out, let my hair down and enjoy the feeling of a warm ocean breeze against my skin.

I'd like to meet:

The people who have read my book, other creative minds...writers, musicians, artist. I'd also like to make friends with others from the New Orleans Metro area. I love to be around people who make me laugh and who are down to earth.

And I can't forget bands with ties to New Orleans...LeRoux, The Neville Brothers, Fats Domino, Harry Connick Jr., Irma Thomas, Doug Kershaw, Dr. John, Allen Toussaint, plus so many more. I absolutely love music...all kinds. And I love the annual Jazz and Heritage Festival which takes place in New Orleans. I also love to watch my Uncle Jerry play at the Crescent City Brewhouse, right here in the great city of New Orleans...His jazz trio is awesome!!!!

Movies:

Bridget Jones-especially the 2nd one, Pride and Prejudice, Cold Mountain, 13 Going on 30 (it cracks me up) & Phantom of the Opera.

Television:

I enjoy watching movies whenever I have the opportunity to sit down in the evening to relax. Myspace Contact Tables

Books:

I love the books by Danielle Steele, Sandra Brown and Carly Phillips. My favorite author is Nicholas Sparks...And his book "Message in A Bottle", is better than the movie. It makes me cry every time.

Heroes:

All of the rescue workers and the local residents who saved so many of the New Orleans area residents from the massive flooding that occurred following Hurricane Katrina.
