IN THE DARK OF A DREAM originated because of my daughter. And my love of Sci-Fi TV. My daughter, unfortunately, has been plagued with night terrors since two weeks before… Read more My Inspiration for IN THE DARK OF A DREAM →
IN THE DARK OF A DREAM is finally here, so it’s time for a Goodreads Kindle Giveaway! This book was nearly six years in the making. Six years of picking it up, putting it away, and hauling it back out again to write around my other projects. It lost a villain and gained a better one, swapped supporting character genders and nationalities several times, took out swear words, put in swear words (while uttering worse swear words) and went through three rounds of beta readers. It’s not exactly what I… Read more Goodreads Giveaway! →

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 5 Glowing Stars My letter “E” book for 2022 just blew my head off my shoulders.

I came into this expecting typical chick lit about a woman finding empowerment and maybe love. It was that, but it was SO not that. I can’t begin to get into the layers of complexity or the masterful way her backstory unraveled… Read more A to Z Book Review: Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine →
BLUE is finally out – all except the audiobook, unfortunately. We had a delay in production (thanks COVID!) and hope to have it out within the next few weeks. I’ll make an announcement when it’s available. In the meantime, you can snatch it up in paperback or eBook. Buy Links Here. I’m so glad to share my angry, miserable, hopeful and hilarious story with the world. Be sure and let me know if you guess the twist at the end!
It’s Pub Day Eve for BLUE! I’ve been here twice before in YA (and quite a few more times in other genres), but this one means a hell of a lot to me. You see, BLUE almost never was because I quite nearly ceased to be. Five weeks before DREAMER released in 2018, I was battling for my life against a devastating brain bleed in a hospital room far from home. I survived obviously, but lost the use of the left side of my body. As a single mom with… Read more Dream A Little Dream, Or Battling For BLUE →
