Books 2 & 3 in "The Don't Series" are available for pre-order now!

I'm thrilled to announce I have completed the first three novels in The Don't Series! "After I Broke" and "Unbreaking" will both be available May 28, 2019. I can't thank those of you who have emailed me, asking what's next for Olivia and Carter, enough. I write these novels for you. Your words of encouragement inspire me to continue! I think, hope, everyone loves where their story ends.
