The Locket
For all my readers and followers...It's almost here. The Locket is due to release April 1st!
Samantha learned at an early age that life isn't always fair. When her mother re-marries and she acquires an older brother, that takes advantage of her innocence. She learns that there is more to family than words and actions.
Oliver used to be a happy boy until a horrifying incident takes his family away. He has learned one valuable lesson at his young age, 'Protect those you care about.'
When he sees a scared little Samantha, Oliver’s heart was drawn to her, to help and protect her. Even though he’s several years older, he made that promise to himself to watch over her. She never knew he was always there. He was her Protector. But he was keeping a secret from her.
When Oliver’s identity is revealed, Samantha, feeling betrayed and deceived goes into hiding, running away from the man she has loved most of her life.
Oliver has to find her before Samantha’s past catches up with her. Will she be able to survive or will her past take her away forever leaving Oliver, a shell of a man?
*****THIS BOOK DEALS WITH THE DARK SUBJECT OF SEXUAL ABUSE AND RAPE****

Anchored to Love
All Charlie ever wanted to do was play softball in college. She’d worked all her life for that one dream, and finally made it. The only problem: it’s on the other side of the country. To keep her dream alive, she did the only thing she could think of—move.
However, when Charlie refused to party and drink with her teammates, she was accused of not being a team player. There was no way she’d jeopardize her scholarship. Charlie would walk away from anyone that could ruin her dream.
Get the box of tissues ready. I don't think I have ever cried so hard writing a story.
Carson and Charlies story will be out late July!
Carson was always on his own, as his parents had other priorities that didn't include him. He was a genius, and after graduating at sixteen, he decided to travel the United States. He never believed in relationships—who needs the drama?—he was a manwhore through and through. That is, until he ran into Charlie. She was different; she was special, and he knew it from the start.
They were inseparable and spent all of their free time connected at the hip. That was until the misunderstanding happened. The one thing that would throw a curve ball into the mix.
Will dreams slip through Charlie’s fingertips, or can she catch the ball?

Loving Redemption
It's Live!
For all of you that have been waiting the time has finally come.
Here's a taste of it:
Never having a family to call his own, Toby Mitchell was a child caught up in the foster system, always being shuffled from one home to the next. It wasn't until he was old enough to join the Marines that he found a home. While on a mission in Afghanistan, he sustained a job ending injury that forced him out of the only family he knew. If not for Beckett, he would’ve spiraled out of control.
Raven Whitehorse, raised without a mother, has always felt that there was a conspiracy behind her mother's disappearance. Running away from home, at sixteen, to try to find her, the search hits a dead end.
Toby needs to locate his mother; the drug addicted woman that didn't care enough about her own child to seek the professional help she needed. He senses that without this, he can't move forward with a relationship with Raven.
Raven wants the truth behind what happened the day her mother disappeared. Was she the scared teen that couldn’t handle the pressures of new motherhood, was she blackmailed to leave, or worse?
What secrets will they find, and how will that affect them?
