Happy April, friends! I hope you are well and enjoying the warmer weather. I love this time of year. For me, springtime means fresh new starts, new possibilities, and endless events/activities. Hopefully it'll lead to a vacation, too, as I've been plugging away on various edits and wrapping up Book 5 in the West Coast Crime Story series! But I digress... Today I am sharing the cover and blurb for Book 4 in the series, HOMETOWN HOMICIDE. Keep reading to check it out!

Springtime Updates!
Happy March, and Happy International Women's Day, friends! I cannot believe that we'll already be "springing forward" on Sunday, March 10th, then celebrating the first official day of spring in 12 days. Where has the time gone?! It feels as if we were just celebrating Christmas and New Year's. Here in Chicago, the Lake Michigan boat tours are in full swing, and we'll be dyeing the river green on Saturday the 16th (I'll be sure to share pics)!
As for me, keep reading for what I've been up to and what I've got planned in the coming weeks...

A Dear Reader Letter From Me to You...
Hey friends! Do you enjoy Dear Reader letters? My author friends and I always grapple with whether or not we should include them in our books. Judging by the feedback I've received from readers, they are much appreciated. Whenever I'm starting or ending a series, I love sharing a few tidbits on what inspired the story, the type of research that went into it, etc. Now that I've stepped into the world of medical romance, I felt compelled to include a Dear Reader in ER DOC'S LAS VEGAS REUNION just to give a little insight into how the book came to fruition. Keep reading to check it out!
