I love to write about small town heroes from the cowboys and ranchers of Colorado to the game wardens, firefighters, and lobstermen of Maine. A transplanted big city gal, world-wide traveler, and foreign-service brat, I now live in a medium size coastal Maine town and most recently worked at a rural environmental college where I was lucky to interact on a daily basis with real life heroes and heroines. My people-oriented jobs in education, non-profits, and hospitality have provided much fodder for my story ideas.

Views of the Maine coast to the mountains of Colorado, and everything in between, inspire me. Dealing with dust bunnies and mile-high piles of dishes do not in any way inspire me, so I am adept at turning my back. My fridge is filled with more cheese than chocolate. Although there is a large assortment of every flavor of dark chocolate known to woman, which I dip into when I am delsing: a code word coined by my two grown children (one who lives on the coast of Maine and the other in the mountains of Colorado—see the connection?) meaning mom’s writing - don’t bother her.

Newly released is book two, The Rancher Needs a Wife of the Cowboys of Mineral Springs series. And The Love Left Behind.

Works in progress are books three and four of the Cowboys of Mineral Springs series and a sweet holiday romance at a Vermont inn.  Look for these in 2021!
