![]() We demonstrate that heat-shock-driven FLP recombinase adds temporal control on top of tissue specific expression provided by the transgene promoter. ![]() The constructs are designed using the multisite Gateway system, so that promoters and coding regions can be quickly mixed and matched. We have introduced two fluorescent reporters into the system: a red reporter for promoter activity prior to FLP expression and a green reporter for expression of the gene of interest after FLP expression. This sequence can be excised by FLP recombinase to bring together the promoter and the coding region. The “off cassette” is composed of a transcriptional terminator flanked by FLP recognition targets (FRT). Transcription is blocked by the presence of an “off cassette” between the promoter and the coding region of the desired product. Here we use FLP to temporally and spatially control gene expression in the nematode C. ![]() The FLP enzyme catalyzes recombination between specific target sequences in DNA. ![]() ![]() ![]() When Laurel's quicksilver moods get the better of her-leading to an angry, hot, all-together mind-blowing kiss with Del-she'll have to quiet the doubts in her mind to turn a moment of passion into forever.

I found myself an awesome agent and was approached by Penguin, and they were amazingly enthusiastic about publishing the book and its sequel. I released On Dublin Street on August 31st 2012 and as it climbed its way to #1 on the Amazon Kindle chart in the U.S. However, after Fifty Shades and the Crossfire novels blew the genre up, I realized it made more sense to put aside my current projects and work on my contemporary romance.
