Thanks for stopping by.  If you’re new to my website, I’m the author of over fifty romantic fiction novels, and a series of short stories I call  Flirts. I love to tell a story that sometimes makes you laugh, sometimes makes you cry, often has a surprise or two, but always ends happily ever after.

I live in North Texas with my husband, a rescued German Shepherd who believes himself to be the neighborhood goodwill ambassador (the German Shepherd, not my hubby),  a fifty-pound American Pit Bull who is convinced he's a lapdog.  Occasionally I get to puppysit my Golden Retriever  grandpuppy.  All dutifully sit at my feet as I write my next story.

So come on in, explore my pages, and see what's in store for you!​

Busy Week

Oh have we had a busy week!  This was demo week - we tore out the right side of my kitchen to flip the room so that I can access my porch without having to cross the house :) .  I am super content already with the difference in light the new door makes in the kitchen.  This is mostly a do it yourself sort of project - I'm the one managing the work load and independent contractors (let's just say electrical isn't my thing lol) so it's making book writing slow going (lots of interruptions) but I'm chugging along! First we have a messy mid process photo (forgot to take a pretty photo of a clean kitchen lol) and then the patio door installed where the window over the sink was :) 

​Then, I have series book cover news for you - as you know I'm working on a new series: The Billionaire Barons of Texas.  This is a very wealthy ranching family with interests in more than just ranching. Grandson #1 runs the family hotel business (think the Hiltons without the drama) Grandson #2 is a race car driver.  Grandaughter in book #3 is a smart as a whip chemist who creates scents for a living. Number 4 is back to the grandsons, this guy runs a television movie production company - I'm having dinner with a real producer this tuesday for background!. Book #5 is the granddaughter who runs the family vineyard in central Texas. Book #6 is granddaughter who is a photographer. The last book of siblings is the widowed Senator.  If y'all like the series there are a ton more grandchildren to keep going with. 

Here is a first time reveal of the covers!  Let me know what you think of the titles and series title. We struggled a lot as to weather to put billionaire in the series title or not.

Last but not least Mom seems to be making some improvements since her rapid post car accident decline. She's not back to normal yet, is still housebound, but we're working on it! 

So  - what do you think? Let me know I love visiting with you guys. Also do you like the renovation photos or would you rather I stuck to book matters?

thanks! Because of Mom's age it's not a given that she'll fully bounce back but we're trying out best. The doctor ordered PT for her so maybe :) - The kitchen will take a while - it's a bit by bit thing vs a big contractor coming in, tearing it all out and rebuilding quickly.

I’d have thought there’d be pics of the girls on the granddaughter books. ??

We debated that too! finally decided to make it consistent we're giving a shot at the men they fall for - so much of this biz is giving your two cents and hoping the decisions made are the right ones!

Love the premise and the covers, but agree it would be nice if the women were on the cover of their books. We remodeled our kitchen 8 years ago, doubling the size. I love having the patio door to the back yard. Good luck with it all.

So glad you like the premise - The grandfather - a retired marine and former governor and his wife had six kids. This first batch is one son's children. We may change our mind and put the women on the covers yet ! The size of my kitchen isn't changing - but I've always wondered why the heck there isn't a door in the kitchen - so to put the door in a place that would lead to the porch we have to flip the kitchen - it's been a dream for twenty years and now and every year for the last five I've said this year well, this year we decided let's just do it a little at a time So my first three cabinets get delivered in two weeks and then we'll order the next batch LOL.
