I know I don’t update the news section very often–I mostly rely on my Facebook author page and my newsletter. I did create a resource page that has series order, a complete book list, a printable book list, and even a map of Lantern Beach–just for starters. 

Please check out the page if you have questions about any of my books. I hope this new section might provide you the answers you need!

Hi, all!

I know it’s been a long time since I posted a news update here. My apologies!

I wanted to give you a quick update for 2019. Here’s my tentative publishing schedule.

I plan on releasing six books in the Lantern Beach P.D. series January – June. I also have a Love Inspired Suspense novel called the Cradle Conspiracy releasing in August.

I also plan on releasing a new Squeaky Clean novel, a new Holly Anna novel, a new Worst Detective Ever novel, and a new Fog Lake Suspense novel. I’d like to write another Lantern Beach Romantic Suspense novella, as well.

In August, I’ll have a novella called Afterglow release with a collection called Summer of Suspense.

Whew. That about does it! I already have some plans for a new series I’m releasing in 2020, so I have lots of stories swimming around in my head!

I’ll try to keep this site updated as I have definite release dates.

Blessings,

Christy
