Thanks for stopping by.  If you’re new to my website, I’m the author of over thirty 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 the Dallas area 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!

​We Have a Title

Sorry I’m a little late today -  it’s been a busy weekend. We had to make some changes at my mom’s house and as her dementia downgrades, getting her on board can be challenging. On the bright side I managed to get in 8000 steps walking back and forth inside her house! 
 
So, my mom’s computer room and art room are now combined – though it’s kind of sad because the truth is she will never be able to do oil paints again. It’s simply too hard for her to remember all the steps. But she still uses her computer so we’ll have that up and running as soon as I get a hold of her internet provider.
 
With the larger room empty, we moved the furniture around and are prepping for my cousin’s arrival next week. She and her hubby are going to use mom’s house as home base for the next year to help us keep an eye on Mom while they relocate to Texas.  The timing has been wonderful that we can be a blessing for both sides. Now that we’ve gotten over the hurdle of moving rooms around, Mom is very excited that my cousin is coming.
 
All the changes in society are bringing more and more of my relatives to Texas. We’re actually very pleased that this is coming together. Next on the list is another cousin from the other side of the family who may be moving here with his family from California. My daughter is very excited at the prospect of having so much family within driving distance!
 
Today has been a day of catching up on words. I know y’all are expecting Neil and Honeymoon for Five in the spring – and that’s not changing –but now we’re adding a little Christmas book.  Yep – We’ll be sharing Christmas with the Harts!  I’m pretty excited.  The title will be (so far) Picture Perfect.  I’ll know in a few days more about covers and release dates, but now I need to get back to typing!
 
In the meantime I’m sharing one of Mom’s paintings from 1956. It was one of her earliest and I didn’t even know it was in her closet. So we found a frame (she has a bazillion frames in the garage) and now it’s on my wall!

She was amazing even back in the beginning!
I am so glad for you that more family is moving close and see Gods hand in the ones who are going to stay with your mother for now. This transition time is so difficult for everyone. Wishing you the best and praying for all of you.

Thank You - mom had SO much talent - she made gorgeous gowns and costumes for children and adults alike. Her paintings are fantastic I have a few in my house I may post more of them - this one had been in a closet my entire life and I only recently found it.
