I just finished my 10th novel! The First Sunset will be available this October.

Blurb:

Betsy Anstead, a newly divorced single mother, is instantly smitten when she meets Gage Mendoza, a handsome widower and Minor League baseball coach.

Gage doesn’t need romance, and he certainly isn’t interested in a single mother who clearly needs saving. His eyes are trained on his dream—a Major League coaching position—the consolation prize for his former career.

When Betsy’s ex-husband sues for full custody of their children, her lawyer warns her not to get involved in a new romance which could complicate her case. But Gage is handsome, sweet, and everything she ever wanted.

Betsy is beautiful, kind, caring—she makes his heart forget how lonely the past five years have been.

When Gage is offered the chance to join the Big Leagues, he suddenly questions whether true love happens twice in a lifetime.

And if it does, at what price?

I just handed off the final draft of The Last Chapter to my new editor. It'll be finalized in July and available in September 2019. Here's the blurb with the first chapter of the novel to be released in a couple of weeks.

Blurb

Emma Barton is drowning. A single mother of a son with both a genius-level IQ and Autism, she’s given up on love to focus on the child who needs her. Her writing aspirations—the only dream she hasn't abandoned—withers as her latest novel bombs, and she’s dropped by her publisher.

Ethan Wise wants an Oscar, but he’d settle for being something other than a romantic comedy lead or an overly muscular superhero. Discovering Emma’s novel happened by chance, but it could also be his opportunity to finally become a serious actor.

When Ethan seeks Emma out to buy the movie rights to her novel, they fall so passionately in love that both of their lives are turned upside down.

Emma wants to be with Ethan, but there’s her son to consider and the secrets she’s kept to protect him. She’ll do anything to keep her little boy’s world safe and happy.

She’d even give up the love of her life.

For those that follow me, I've been MIA for a really lousy reason. After a near fatal (and bone crushing) car accident, I developed a rare (and sometimes fatal) autoimmune disease. It's a struggle these days to work full-time and raise a child alone while still chasing my writing passions.

I considered giving up writing altogether and realized I just couldn't.

Now I'm happy to say I have a new novel coming this fall. For the blurb, check out my next post.

Most of my novels are free today on Amazon!

If you've read "One Last Try" then you'll want to tune in for "The Last Piece", which tells the story of Betsy (Jane's best friend) and Gage, two souls searching for love after experiencing tremendous loss.

Here's an excerpt:

If I go first, look for me in the sunset, Beverley said.
You won’t go first, he replied.
How can you be so sure?
Because God knows I can’t live without you.
Gage Mendoza, you would do just fine without me.
No, Beverly Mendoza, I would not.
She pressed her forehead against his, her arms resting lightly on his shoulders. The smell of lavender hung in the air as they slow-danced on the front porch.
You’re stronger than you think, she whispered.
He shook his head. He never could win with her.
Why the sunset? Gage asked instead.
She caressed his cheek. He laid a weathered palm over her pink fingers not wanting the warmth of her skin to ever leave his.
Beverley smiled as if she knew a secret. Her voice was low when she answered—Because it’s the only time you ever stop to breathe.
