Blog postI’m super excited to introduce you to my new release, Once Upon an Irish Summer. Before Covid shut world travel down, I was lucky enough to travel to the Emerald Isle for a visit along the West Coast, accompanied by my son, Jack, and husband, Tim. It was November, so it was hardly “Summer weather,” but we were graced with sunshiny days at least half the time…and a screaming deal on airfare that we couldn’t pass up.

Blog postMY REVIEW: It was with some fear and trepidation that I purchased Lisa Wingate’s newest novel on Audible. Given how much I loved Before We Were Yours (my favorite novel from 2018), I was sure this one couldn’t measure up. My doubt did a disservice to Lisa. In a similar vein as Before We Were Yours, Wingate picked up on a heartfelt story of searing loss and separation, but weaved a brand new, utterly unique story in The Book of Lost Fri10 months ago Read more

Verity (The Sugar Baron's Daughters Book #2)
Apr 2, 2019
$9.99
After leaving England behind for a new life in the West Indies with her sisters, Verity Banning wants something to call her own. Her affinity for animals inspires her to set up a business importing horses, as well as other goods in demand by the island residents. But when she arrives in the Colonies to purchase her goods, unexpected news of Captain Duncan McKintrick awaits her--as does the captain's handsome brother, Ian--whose sympathies lie with the fledgling Patriot cause.
As the great-granddaughter of a British general and friend to many Loyalists, Verity believed all she wanted was a peaceful resolution. But both the Patriots and the impassioned Ian McKintrick are steadily laying claim to her heart. When faced with the decision of what--and for whom--she will fight, can she set her feet on a new path despite the danger that awaits?

Waterfall (The River of Time Series Book #1)
Feb 1, 2011
$8.99
Gabriella has never spent a summer in Italy like this one.
Remaining means giving up all she's known and loved . . . and leaving means forfeiting what she's come to know--and love itself.
Most American teenagers want a vacation in Italy, but the Bentarrini sisters have spent every summer of their lives with their parents, famed Etruscan scholars, among the romantic hills. In Book One of the River of Time series, Gabi and Lia are stuck among the rubble of medieval castles in rural Tuscany on yet another hot, boring, and dusty archeological site . . . until Gabi places her hand atop a handprint in an ancient tomb and finds herself in fourteenth-century Italy. And worse yet, in the middle of a fierce battle between knights of two opposing forces.
And thus she comes to be rescued by the knight-prince Marcello Falassi, who takes her back to his father's castle--a castle Gabi has seen in ruins in another life. Suddenly Gabi's summer in Italy is much, much more interesting. But what do you do when your knight in shining armor lives, literally, in a different world?

Selah (The Sugar Baron's Daughters Book #3)
Mar 3, 2020
$6.50
Selah Banning has come of age on the West Indies island of Nevis, shaped by experiences far beyond the typical upbringing of a young British lady in 1776. She never anticipated that the most tumultuous time of her life might await her in the year ahead.
Jedediah Reed, a young Methodist preacher with a call to serve the slaves of Nevis, has settled at Selah's family's plantation, the Double T. As Selah's heart is drawn to the same people, their shared purpose brings them together--despite her guardians' concern with a romance that promises little security for the future.
As Jedediah's faith and Selah's abolitionist leanings lead to changes on the plantation, the Revolutionary War continues to build in the States. With the threat of starvation and the conflict with island mogul Angus Shubert growing ever stronger, the future of the Double T and its people hangs in the balance.
