Simone has always written for fun before she decided to try and get published. She was inspired to write her first book because she wanted to read a ghost story that was creepy but not gory, and that had a romance in it. Since she couldn't find it, she wrote it herself.[2]
The themes in Simone's novels often include ghosts, crime, and an investigation. Although Simone claims never to have seen a ghost personally, her books are all about the possibility, and specifically about the "what if" moment.[3] The first books written by Simone were set in the 1920s. She decided after that to write for other time periods like the 1950s.[4][5][6]
