I am currently working on two novellas and the first book in Harper's Justice Series.
The novellas are part of the Starry Night Novellas which follow the three daughters of Adam and Julia Larson:
- Caty's Craftsman - a clean, sweet Christmas time romance where dreams come true and prayers are answered.
- Penny's Pursuit - a clean, friends-to-sweethearts romance where the guy almost lost the girl.
- Dory's Desire - a clean, I-am-in-love-with-my-sisters-ex romance where the guy must wake up to true love before he misses it.
The Harper's Justice Series follows the four remaining Harper siblings introduced in The Resourceful Stockman (Colter Sons Book 4). My goal with this series is to really punch up the western suspense themes.

Caty's Craftsman (A Starry Night Novella) is my latest release. I was in the mood for Christmas very early this year--at least early for me. My hubby thinks we should start counting down to Christmas on Jan. 1st.
Anyway, I've wanted to write stories about the Larson sisters. The lake at Colter Ranch has been a central setting in nearly all my novels, so I wanted to use the lake in a new way. I thought, "What if these three sisters were really close and they shared their secrets?" Then WHAM! This idea was born: to feature opening scenes where the sisters sneak out to the dock on the lake in the middle of the night to stargaze and share their dreams and prayers.
Caty's dream took shape. She wanted to marry a craftsman. What does that mean? Well, you'll have to read the novella to find out. :)
