*New Release!* A CHRISTMAS TREASURE is available now!!
Surprise!! My secret project, A CHRISTMAS TREASURE: A Victorian Christmas Novella, is available now on Kindle!
Jonathan Derring knows when a risk is well worth taking. When his ship, the Daring Admirer pulls into port, his mind is on the treasure the captain had said had been found—but Jonathan had never expected the treasure to be his first love, Rebecca Lankershim.
A second chance at love…
Raised under the shadow of her loathsome father’s domination, Rebecca Lankershim had seized the opportunity to flee to the Caribbean three years ago, taking with her a copy of the ancient pirate map she and Jonathan had found amongst his grandfather’s things. After years of searching, the mysterious fortune comes into her possession, and she sets sail on the first ship returning to England to establish control of her newfound riches. Certainly, she knew her voyage home might lead her to cross paths with Jonathan, but she had gained her independence and a clear vision for her future. Nothing would stand in the way of the freedom she sought, not even green eyes that burned with desire and a bold, passionate spirit that matched her own.
Jonathan knows it would take a Christmas miracle to breach the protective walls Rebecca’s built around her heart. After her aunt insists she attend the festivities Jonathan’s sister has planned, the Christmas season burns bright with caroling parties and sleigh rides, a sumptuous feast and a Christmas dance, and through it all, the lovely Rebecca shines like the north star, but Jonathan knows better than anyone that behind her façade of easy charm and sweet smiles, a wounded heart longs to be healed.
Childhood companions turned youthful sweethearts… estranged lovers and rekindled love… can Jonathan lead Rebecca to the greatest Christmas treasure of all?

Happy Book Birthday Timespell 2!!
Timespell: Perilous Waters, book 2 in the Timespell series is available now! Happy book birthday, and what a journey it's been!! To celebrate, for one week only, the first book in the series is available for 99 cents!
If you haven't had a chance to start the series, this is the perfect chance to get it at a bargain. But act fast, because after this week it goes back to normal price.
And here's a little more about book 1:
Bound by ancient magic, the frivolous Julia, straight-laced Angie, and malicious Kaitlyn have their minds on junior prom, but the Fates have other plans. Chosen to fulfill the ancient roles of Daughters of Past, Present, and Future, the girls must work together despite their differences or risk not only their lives, but the fate of the world. Cast back in time to the majesty of Marie Antoinette's Paris and the terror of the French Revolution, they find beauty, betrayal, and the temptation of dark magic. Even with the help of a mysterious protector, a lifetime in the modern world has not prepared the Daughters of Fate to battle mythic creatures, or face a great Sorceress determined to see them destroyed. Timespell, a YA time travel fantasy with romantic elements, is available now. The sequel, Timespell: Perilous Waters, sends the girls to the Caribbean during the golden age of piracy, and releases November 5th.
For those of you new to the series, I hope you enjoy book 1 at its limited-time low price! And for fans, I couldn't be more excited to share the next installment in Julia, Kaitlyn, and Angie's story. Thank you for all of your support!
And if you read my work, please remember to leave a review on Amazon. Even a sentence or two makes a huge difference in the wonky marketing algorithms they use... and I really do want to know what readers think of my work!
