It took awhile, but when I finally figured out that my passion for books was overtaking any other interest in my life, I knew I had to make it my career. I write women's fiction novels that draw on the full breadth of emotions that life brings and I make sure the stories always end hopeful. What can I say? I'm a sucker for the happy ending. Learn more about my books on the My Manuscripts page or read what I'm currently up to on my Blog. If you feel like saying "Hi!" leave a comment in the blog or drop me an email. I'd love to hear from you. Thanks for stopping by!
