About this author

Hello! Welcome to my goodreads page.

I'm a romantic suspense/thriller author, and oh boy, do I love saying that!

My life is simple, some would even say boring. I work hard, dream big and play often. I believe I have the power to make my dreams come true. Through faith and a positive attitude, I know that I can achieve success for myself and my family.

I live in Botetourt County, Virginia with my husband and son. I strive daily to be the best wife, mother and writer that I can be. My family is always priority number one.

I want happily-ever-after. I want to believe in the basic good of the world. At the end of the day, I want to be proud of myself!

Writing is my calling and passion. It is my dream. What's yours? I want to hear from you!

And rememb...more

Against the Game Excerpt




His eyes stayed locked on whatever was back there. “Lacey, I need you to do something for me. Very slowly start walking towards me. No sudden movements and don’t turn around.”


She knew there was something terrible and dangerous behind her. Her first thought was a snake. A full body shiver threatened, and she fought to stay still...

Accelerating Circumstances Excerpt (Mystery & Thrillers)
1 chapters   —   updated Dec 17, 2011 05:52pm
Description: Jenny is different. She can read people’s minds. At age seventeen, Jenny Reid was arrested for killing her own mother. There was no evidence that an intruder entered the house. No one believed her as a teenager when she tried to tell them how she felt the killer’s rage saturated within the walls, that she knew the presence of evil had been there. The police thought she was crazy, not psychic. A conviction was never made in the case due to lack of evidence. Jenny is still the sole suspect, but now, she is doing something about it. She’s on the right side of the law, an FBI agent determined to finally find justice for her mom. The time has come to set things right and nothing will stand in her way. She’ll come up close with evil again and face the ultimate choice—kill or be killed in these ACCELERATING CIRCUMSTANCES.

Description: Read the book...a murder mystery by Destiny Booze
The Curse of a Mind Excerpt (Mystery & Thrillers)
1 chapters   —   updated Nov 04, 2010 08:21am
Description: They can’t win. The perpetrator is using a marvel in the medical field known as techlepathy, a combination of technology and telepathy to produce a telepathic result. He’s reading their minds. How can they possibly get away when he knows their every move? Chris Chambers is a private investigator with great instincts and a shady past. She works with a skilled team on cases that most P.I.’s won’t touch. She’s hardened to life, hardened to people and as tough as the military trained her to be. Her team’s newest case is a construction worker by the name of Aidan Wolfe. Aidan is hardheaded and successful, a man with no friends and a long list of enemies. Someone is trying to kill him, someone with extraordinary gifts. The investigative team and Aidan will be confronted with their worst enemies—themselves. They are cursed to face their own thoughts, inner fears, prejudices, and every private feeling or emotion they have as this man toys with their minds and hearts. Can they survive? By the end, will they want to?

Predetermined Endings Poem (Poetry)
0 chapters   —   updated Jul 11, 2010 06:33am
Description: An introductory poem to my romantic suspense book called Predetermined Endings - Available Now! Predetermined Endings Did you hear the cries of labor, the announcement of God’s favor, to a man and woman, for reasons you cannot summon? Did you feel the sting of pain, the continuum of sacrifice for gain, to get a job and house, for the sprint to success like a mouse? Did you realize the price of life, the philosophy from Adam’s wife, to sample want and desire, for the result of brimstone and fire? Did you hope the pursuit of glory, the manifest destiny of riches by story, to have recognition and fame, for a journey no man overcame? Did you know the result of all, the fate waiting beyond the gate so tall, to teach every person and organism, for a universal truth, not cynicism? Did you hate the epiphany of time, the uncomfortable psalm spoken in rhyme, to justify the birth and beginning, for setting a course with only one predetermined ending? Destiny Booze

I do love Nora Roberts and the past few months here on goodreads have helped me branch out to a lot of different authors as well, so that I have more books to chat now :D
I've been reading about your books and I have to say- wow. I'm looking forward to reading Altered Beginnings. Sounds like a terrific plot.

Emily Hey, thanks for the invite! You were wondering about the Eragon series after having seen the movie, and I have to say I found the movie one of the worst film adaptations of any book I've ever read. It was aimed at children and didn't even begin to do justice to the novel. If you enjoy any fantasy series, I'd highly recommend this one. There are 3 books out right now with a 4th on the way hopefully sometime soon! You'll have to let me know what you think if you end up reading them :)
