FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

do you write in English or Spanish?

Even though my mother tongue is Spanish, I write all my novels in English. Right after graduation I landed an internship abroad, so I packed my bags and left Spain. Before I could blink, I'd spent +10 years working, studying, living, thinking and consuming media & entertaining in English––and the occasional German, although my partner and my very limited Deutsch would argue that. So if you're wondering whether writing in English is a conscious choice or some sort of sales strategy (I was asked this once), the honest truth is that it simply comes more naturally to me.

do you translate your own novels to Spanish?

No. I don't take part in the translation of my work to Spanish, I leave that to the professionals with the skills (and time) to do that. I sometimes have the privilege to read, and occasionally comment on certain things like tone, or the translation of some jokes. But besides that, I am truly honored to have been translated by great professionals and that there's interest from publishers all around the globe at all.

will we ever get The Spanish Love Deception in Aaron's pov? 

Never say never, but I don't see that happening any time soon. Unless––Nah. Not for now :)

what's going on with the film adaptation of The Spanish Love Deception?

the moment I get any updates I can share, I promise you, I will scream them from the rooftops.

is there going to be a sequel to any of your novels?

Nope :) All my novels are standalones that end in a HEA, and I don't see that changing any time soon. I do, however, believe in bonus epilogues. You can definitely expect those from me.

what are you working on right now?

a passion project I can't (won't) tell you much about. For now.

do you love Twilight that much?

hoa hoa hoa hoa hoa hoa––DUH.

what is it about you name-dropping Sebastian Stan on every book?

he gave us Bucky Barnes. And in exchange, he has my undying loyalty for life.
