I am a career lawyer and writer, with a passion for writing the unexpected. Plots about love, relationships, and suspense. Stories that are uncomfortably plausible--that happen to compelling characters in situations beyond their control.

"Chasing Daylight" was released in March 2026. It presents four memorable stories of love and suspense. The stories will sometimes make you smile, sometimes make you nervous, and the characters will touch you. The stories are all so different, and I loved writing them all.

"Living, Loving, Laughing, and Occasional Murder" is a set of eleven short stories and an introspective piece published in 2025. Stories of real people and the unexpected.

"The Senator's Murder" was released in July 2024. It is a story of murder, trying to solve that murder of a nationally known senator, the lives that are affected and the evidence that emerges. It's a story that features hard-working people, mistakes that come back to haunt, and how evidence can emerge that paints more than one picture. It's the story of a nationally followed trial that turns lives upside down and comes with some real surprises and it's the story of a massive ethical and moral dilemma. I hope that you love it!

"The Insiders' Club: Strangers in Crime" has been released (July 2023). It is the fourth book in the Scott Winslow mystery series and it sees investigator Lee Henry go to great lengths to obtain evidence of insider trading by an elite group of brokers and wind up a murder suspect in the process!

"Between Dreams and Nightmares" was released in 2022. On her fortieth birthday, Amanda Harmon is being interrogated by detectives and is the primary suspect in the murder of her lawyer husband. The FBI is also coming after Amanda because they believe she knows the location of money stolen by her dead husband. It's a wild ride as Amanda sees the walls closing in around her.

"A Secret to Die For," (2020), is the third book in the Scott Winslow series. When two executives in the pharmaceutical industry step forward to complain the drug test results being published are not accurate, they don’t expect to be fired; and they don’t expect anyone to be stalked, beaten, or killed. They have no idea what they will be up against for revealing a secret that will cost their employer billions of dollars.
Aligor Pharmaceuticals has a new drug. One that they say will revolutionize cancer treatment, with the possibility of rescuing many in the final stages of the disease. And Delexane is only weeks from FDA approval as the phase three trials conclude. The product is already generating millions of dollars with news of its arrival causing the stock price to soar. In a couple of months, the product will be released and millions battling cancer are expected to benefit. The problem is, the sixty-five percent success rate that resulted in the first two phases of the drug test has fallen to only twelve percent in phase three, the biggest test group of the product trials, but Aligor continues to publicize a sixty-five percent success rate. Witnessing the failures of phase three, Aligor executives Martin Cardenas and Justin Palmer repeatedly approach Aligor’s top management about the discrepancy between the results the company continues to publish, and the results actually documented. To the CEO, their continued silence becomes a question of loyalty and when they author a letter that would disclose what was happening to regulatory authorities, they are both abruptly terminated—and the fight begins.
This is a timely story of a drug that is desperately needed in society. And when a drug company doesn’t disclose the real data about a potential new drug to regulators or the public, there are millions of potential victims.

Chasing Daylight

Four short stories that embrace love, entanglements, and searches; the past that comes knocking with a vengeance, and the promise of a future like no other. The four stories will draw you in, and I hope they will leave you wanting more. Love, suspense, and lots of the unexpected.

She is a fine writer. She draws you in and you feel the emotion of the moment. I was particularly taken by the title piece, as it relayed so very well all she went through and all the nation went through during our Covid isolation.
