• Still On Sale!

    Well, peeps, the 99-cent deal on ONCE MORE FROM THE TOP–book 1 in the Women of Willow Bay series garnered such a great response that I’m extending it for one more week. That great low price is good until October 7, so if you haven’t started this series yet, here’s a great opportunity. The Women of Willow Bay are stories about women over forty finding a second chance at love. I believe that love can happen to anyone at any age, that women only grow more interesting, and that you’re never too old for a little sexy romance. I started writing romance with seasoned characters because I wanted to read…

  • Excerpt from SAVING SARAH

    Hey kids, Saving Sarah, Book 4 in the Women of Willow Bay series, is releasing in just 22 days! I’m so excited I can barely breathe because this book is one that tore at my heartstrings as I wrote it. Sarah’s character was vetted by a woman who graciously shared her story of domestic abuse with me (she is free of it now). Although this isn’t her story, it’s purely fiction as Sarah Bennett’s story, I am grateful for her checking me on details and feelings and fears. I hope you enjoy this little excerpt from Saving Sarah and that you fall in love with Sarah and Tony, just as…

  • Cover Reveal!

    My brilliant and wonderful cover designer, Lani Diane Rich over at Chipperish Media, has been hard at work coming up with a cover for Saving Sarah, Book 4 in the Women of Willow Bay series. I had a hard time figuring out which direction to go the on cover for Sarah’s book because it’s kind of an angsty book, and I couldn’t decide whether I wanted the angst portrayed in the cover art or not. But, I also wanted the cover to complement the other covers in the series–consistency is important to marketing. When I found this couple–several different shots of them on the stock photo website–I knew I’d found…
