We had a chance to jump into the Christmas light season with a trip to Magical Winter Nights. The lights were amazing, and the grandbaby loved walking around, looking at all the different characters. The dinosaurs were his favorite, especially the ones that moved. We were lucky that it was a clear and lovely night! I hope you’re all having a nice holiday weekend!

I’ll be up early and busy cooking by the time you read this! The turkey will be in the oven, and we’ll be working on all the wonderful side dishes. It’s a lot of work, but totally worth it to be able to sit down with family and friends and celebrate Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving is a very special holiday to me because it’s important to be grateful for all the things that you have in your life. I am grateful to still be writing after 26 years in the business. I am grateful for my amazing family and friends. I am grateful for my health. Finally, but never least, I am grateful for all of you who take the time to chat with me online or come and visit with me at an event. It means the world to me! I hope you all have a blessed and wonderful Thanksgiving.

Luckily, Gabriella finds unexpected help in Crooked Pass Security’s unique investigative team. Expert tracker Diego Rodriguez and his faithful K9, Poppy, go searching for clues from the ground up. But when the killer focuses on Gabriella, Diego—and Poppy—must keep Gabriella safe from the killer’s dangerous grasp.

It’s always fun when you see the cover for a new release! I just received the cover for BURIED TRUTHS, my May 2026 release in the Crooked Pass Security series. It’s an action-packed story about a K-9 handler who discovers an injured woman during an early morning hike. Not only is she injured, she can’t remember who she is! Here is a little teaser for the book:

A man and his K-9
Will defend her from danger

When Sergeant Mark Dillon’s K-9 police dog, Rocky, alerts him to something off a mountain path, he doesn’t expect it to be a young woman. Luckily, “Amanda” is alive—but her memory is gone and she has no idea who has left her for dead. As the investigation grows, Mark suspects Amanda is a witness who knows too much. Since she only trusts him, this undeniable connection means Mark and Rocky will do whatever it takes to uncover her buried truths…and keep her alive.
