Release #52

I’m thrilled to announce the release of book #52 – Murder UnShelved. This cozy mystery centers around three adult sisters. (Cough. Cough. The youngest is roughly my age, size, and personality.) They open a joint business in the fictional town of Fox Hollow, located deep in the Texas Hill Country. Before they can hang an “Open for business” sign on …

New Cozy Mystery

I’m so happy to announce a brand new cozy mystery series, A Stitches, Perks & Pages Cozy Mystery. Book 1 is Murder UnShelved, and you can pre-order it now. Release day is 3-26-26. Why another cozy mystery series? As you all know, I write in a lot of genres (Amish romance, romantic suspense, techno-thriller, dystopian, inspirational romance, and cozy mystery). …

A Time to Wait

What’s a writer to do as they wait? If there’s one thing I am NOT good at, it’s waiting. I want to be good at it. I try to be good at it, but waiting is never easy for me. So, what does this have to do with writing? I’m waiting…

New York Times Bestseller

May and June have been full of surprises. First of all, my latest Love Inspired release, An Amish Widow’s New Love, hit the New York Times Bestseller list. That was a first for me! I’ve hit the USA Today Bestseller list a few times and the Publishers Weekly Bestseller list often. The NYT list is a bit harder to land …

Change

Ah, change. Some people love it. Other people hate it. I’m a bit of both. I do get excited by change, but it can be scary sometimes. On April 1, An Amish Widow’s New Love released. It should be on shelves the rest of the month–wherever you purchase books, and of course through online retailers. Which brings us to the …

Series Conclusion

I am so excited to announce the release of the final book in the Allison Quinn series, Oath of Allegiance. When I first conceived this series I had a broad concept of what I wanted, but very few particulars. I knew I wanted to delve into the many ways cyberattacks can and do affect our nation. I wanted a heroine …

A New Year…

…and a new genre. How are you feeling about 2025? I’m feeling good. As I explained to a group of friends the other night, “I’m learning to be okay with being clueless.” It’s true. I walk around a lot, murmuring, “What is happening?” and not letting it make me tense. It’s a skill I’m trying to perfect. So what is …

A New Release

I’m so excited to announce that Veil of Hope is now available in paperback (ebook releases on 9-24-24). As you can tell from the title, the folks from Alpine seem to be turning the corner. Unfortunately, it’s a rough ride. I thought I’d do a little Q&A regarding this release. Q: Do I need to have read all the other …

Welcome Back!

I wanted to take this opportunity to welcome you back to my webpage, or if this is your first visit here, welcome for the first time. With the popularity of social media sites, many businesses are wondering if it’s worth having a webpage. I think it is. I like that I can reach out to everyone, regardless of what social …

Books, Books & …

And more books! I love books. I love them in all sizes and shapes … and formats. When you’ve been published for a while, yes-that means I’m oldER than when I started this gig, you start seeing your books published in a variety of formats. That last one is fun. In the last few years I’ve become a real fan …
