I have written 8 novels

Six suspense/thrillers
—I NEVER LEFT
—THE FIRST HUSBAND
—WITHOUT HER CONSENT
—A TEXT BEFORE DYING
—TRUST ONLY ME
—TWICE ON CHRISTMAS (Nov '23)

...One Romantic Comedy;

— LOVE ON THE LINE (original title— THE FUSSY VIRGIN).

A FAMILIAR STRANGER — a tale of redemption—kind of like a modern, grittier "It's a Wonderful Life" or a modern day "Wall Street", It's a parable of our times..

My stories are character driven and I try to throw in lots of twists and turns to keep the reader interested and guessing. Most of my writing is inspired by real people or events that get my imagination going.

I am married with two children and currently live in Florida. I'm happy to,FaceTime or Zoom into your book club if our schedules permit. Reac ...more

i never left (original name — I am Quinn

Shortly after releasing my debut novel, I am Quinn, my publisher made a title change, it is now called —
—"I Never Left".

All the reviews you see on Goodreads are for the same book, it's exactly the same only now with a different title. Sorry if this caused any confusion. Everyone thought the new title better reflected the storyline.

McGarvey Black liked Leanne's review of Trust Only Me: "This book had me from the start hook, line and sinker and it held on tight. The protagonist Jillian is someone I really liked but I thought her husband Teddy was a bit of a brute. The plot of this is quite disturbed and scary when you think about it."

What a fantastic twisty finish! I loved this book for a few reasons. First —it’s so different from everything else. The plot for a murder is told through cryptic crossword clues. I’m not a crossword person and have no clue on how to solve them, but t ...more
