In Gifts by the Shore (Part 1), I introduced you to my main character, Marianna Greggor, a 39-year-old single mom of a college-aged daughter and, also, the younger sister of Ellen, who owns a bungalow in Sarasota, Florida. As many of you already know — or can guess from the names! — one of my inspirations for this …
I’ve been intrigued by the relationship between sisters for as long as I’ve been a writer. It’s a bit odd, actually, because I don’t have a sister myself (just one awesome younger brother). And, yet, despite having watched sister-to-sister dynamics with fascination in real life, I still didn’t expect so many sister pairs to turn …
I’ve been waiting for over a year to finally get to release THE ROAD AND BEYOND, which is the expanded book-club edition of The Road to You! Why is there a new version, and what’s in it, you ask? Well, when I first released The Road to You, my coming-of-age romantic mystery published last October, the …
I’ll admit, I can be distracted fairly easily by a handsome face. (Not to mention thighs of steel. Or muscular, manly shoulders.

As some of you already know, my newest Austen-inspired novel, Pride, Prejudice and the Perfect Bet, is now available for sale on Kindle and Nook! Thrillingly, this is a week in advance of the official release, which gives me the opportunity to do something special for my Austen friends and loyal readers… 🙂 For the …
Ahhhh, Mr. Darcy would be very impressed indeed with all of us and our extensive reading!! 🙂 I’m hoping he’ll be equally impressed with our extensive writing…which, in my case, resulted in finally getting to type THE END on my sequel to Pride, Prejudice and the Perfect Match — my upcoming novel PRIDE, PREJUDICE AND THE …
