An amazing reader-con is open for registration in beautiful Savannah, Georgia! Literary Love Savannah will be July 19-23rd. Check my social media platforms to hear all about this immersive experience! We will have author Q &A panels, small group and one on one time with your favorite author (it's me, isn't it? I'm your favorite.) A formal ball where we will be dressed like the queens and kings we are (but it's mostly romance authors, so mostly queens).

I will be taking part in the contemporary romance parties and panels, but there will be vampire parties and shifter parties and all sorts of other amazing things to participate in. You can also purchase a ticket for "just the signing" if you are local and don't want to commit to a four day shindig. There will be swag, giveaways, a genuine bonding with other readers. Don't miss out on this incredible event! I will be one of the registered authors, and will be there for the full four days, but you can just come and relax as a treasured reader. We can't wait to meet you!

I'm thrilled to announce the dates for the next trip to Ireland. The O'Brien Tour 2023 will take us to several places in Ireland that are showcased in my book series The O'Brien Tales. The tour is being organized by Love Irish Tours and will include eight nights in 4-star accommodations, breakfast, excursions, and a luxury coach to see the country in style. Historic pubs, ancient ruins, trad sessions, and stunning natural landscapes.
June 13-21, 2023 and you can see the details in my private Facebook group with this link!

At the Paradise Point Officers' Club on Camp Lejeune. Join me and four other writers from the military spouse community. Question and Answer panel, a light dessert, followed by a book signing. March 17th. See my facebook page for the link.

I am so beyond ecstatic to announce the open registration for my author guided tour of O'Brien Country. 8 nights in Ireland with a chauffeured tour of three cities. 3 nights in Dublin, 2 nights in Donegal, and 3 nights in...you guessed it...Doolin, Co. Clare, Ireland!
See details on my author page. The seats on the coach will be limited to 18 travelers, as to keep the group somewhat intimate. Next July for a hopping great time, whiskey tours, ferry rides, pub crawls, and history lessons. Maybe you'll find your own O'Brien!

I will be participating in a Romance Writers of America Literacy Autographing on July 21 from 2pm-5pm at the Downtown Denver Sheraton.

I also have a signing Nov. 10th in Columbia, SC at the Embassy Suites where I will be selling the first five O'Brien novels and MAYBE even the sixth. This is the link to get tickets!

I will be selling books, but I will also sign books you've already purchased if you bring them with you, so swing on by if you are in the South!

I have absolutely loved writing this book. I've researched everything from what medications you take for a cocaine overdose to what kind of spiders can kill you in the rainforest. I really love my leading lady and I think she's perfect for this story and this time in Liam's life. So, stand by and hold on to your hat, because this one is exciting, heartbreaking, and spicy. Liam is about to get schooled. River Angels: An O'Brien Tale

Shadow Guardian: An O'Brien Tale

So excited to get this book into my readers hands. A lot of thought, research, and love went into it. It is way more suspenseful than the first two, getting into the realm of Romantic Suspense. Available for pre-order.

I love to travel. Everyone who knows me understands this. I am not a high end, spa loving, five star traveler. I am more for integrating myself into a culture, walk the town on foot, meet the people, have a drink, hit an open air market for lunch type of of girl. I am also a firm believer in taking my kids places. Not everywhere, because sometimes I need a break with The Big Marine, but my kids are very well traveled. The whole "when the kids are grown" thing never sat well with me. We lived abroad twice and also lived in several states...Granny wasn't around to take the kids. So, even as infants we strapped them on our backs and went. Trains, ferries, planes, mountains, beaches, museums. They are fantastic kids.

My main character, Branna, is a military child that has come of age. She lived the life that my kids have lived. Raised in the duffle bag. She's richer for it.

It was my travel bug that led to this first novel, Raven of the Sea. Ireland was by far my best trip. I loved Italy when I was young, loved the romance and the food and the art. Ireland, though. That stirred my blood. I felt a part of that place. There is magic in those rocky coasts and in the rolling green hills, the ruins, the fairy mounds, the hum of the pubs. Magic. So, that's how this book happened. I was seduced by a place, and the characters came along after.
