We are only a few months away from the release of PREYED UPON! I cannot wait for readers to check out Book 5 in A WEST COAST CRIME STORY series. Here's the scoop on this older woman/younger man romantic suspense novel...

Her presence is a threat to people in her hometown...

Forced into early retirement from the Chicago police department for her own safety, Chloe Grant moves back to Maxwell, Arizona. Her podcast about murdered women starts out as a way to keep herself busy in her sleepy hometown. Reconnecting with Troy Miller—now a rookie in the local PD—also promises to make her new life a little more interesting. Then a copycat starts reenacting the cases she covers on her podcast, and they both realize that Chloe didn’t leave danger behind when she left the big city…

It's my book birthday! 🎂 This month, I am celebrating the bookiversary of SHE GETS A HAPPY ENDING. Here's the scoop on Book 3 in A FEARLESS FAIRYTALE series:

Sometimes happily ever after arrives on its own magical schedule…

Devon Jacobs’s star is definitely in orbit. Despite the cancellation of her weekly sitcom, she lands a job writing for a television drama, then sells her Christmas script to the perfect producer. But her boyfriend, Ryan Roberts, is having no such luck. Down on himself and burning out from all the auditioning, his frustration puts a strain on their relationship, and suddenly they find themselves calling it quits.

A movie shoot in the holiday town of Leavenworth, Washington, is exactly the mental break Devon needs. Until their leading man quits and the producer replaces him with none other than Ryan. Finding the right level of professionalism isn’t as easy as it sounds, especially when this opportunity means everything to their careers—and it’s becoming more obvious with each passing day that neither one of them is successful in saying goodbye.

Can Devon and Ryan find a way to combine their dreams and tie a bow around their relationship—this time for keeps?

Last but not least, I am sending the biggest birthday wish to my sister, Rhonda Wheatley! 🥳 For years, Rhonda would travel to Sedona, Arizona to spend her birthdays at the world-class Mii amo destination spa. I loved hearing stories of her hiking the red rock formations, indulging in healing massages, participating in guided meditations, and so much more. This year, Rhonda will be hanging out at a local spa on her birthday. I'm just glad she'll be doing something she loves on her special day...🎉
