She is also a proud member of Romance Writers of America.

BLOOD ORCHIDS is as much a wonderful depiction of the character development of Hawaiian police office Lei Texeira as it is a murder mystery/romance. Lei is every bit the flawed protagonist...perhaps even more than most. Her background involves violen...more

Michelle Cornwell-Jordan Raine I enjoyed Becoming and I love Central more. I am reading it at this time.I love the characters, and I cannot wait to read more about Skye and Caleb in the third book, THAT should be a fun ride. Your books, too me, in my opinion, have the same poetic quality as the Twilight series, the description, the lyrical quality....lovely.
I have actually been looking forward to the end of the day, when I can get back to my Nook and Central:)
