About Me


I am an avid reader and author of romance novels. In August of 2006, I fulfilled a lifelong dream when I sold my first novel to Dorchester Publishing.
When I'm not writing, I spend way too much time reading, surfing the internet and blogging on my blog . I'll admit I'm also a sports fanatic and will choose to watch a game over a chick flick any day of the week (except if Matthew McConaughey is in said chick flick).
I was lucky enough to find the best group of women in the whole wide world one day while browsing the internet. I've been knowing them for nearly seven years now, and would not trade them for all the money in Fort Knox. I have traveled across the country meeting them all. They have enriched my life in more ways than they could possibly know.
Check out my website for updates on upcoming books! My newest novel, RELEASE ME, was released on May 27, 2008. Read an excerpt of Toby's story!
I am also featured in the anthology, THE HOLIDAY INN, with fellow authors Phyllis Bourne Williams and Stefanie Worth. THE HOLIDAY INN will be available October, 2008.
In February '09, the third and final installment of my Holmes Brothers series, RESCUE ME, hits stores!

My Interests

Reading, Writing, Broadway Musicals, Wicked the Musical, The Color Purple, Starbucks Coffee.

I'd like to meet:

Am I cool now?

According to my little sister and her friends, you're not cool unless you have a My Space page. I realize it's a little pathetic to let the taunting of a 14-year-old dictate my actions, but dammit, I ...
