🌺 Sushi Series Early Access (Before Amazon Preorder!)

Sushi series now on saleThe entire Sushi Series is now available directly from me — early! 🎉

Four cousins—Lex the Jock, Trish the Flirt, Venus the Cactus, and Jennifer the Doormat—commiserate their single status. As the only Christians in their large extended family, they vow to fight the stigma of the infamous family title, Oldest Single Female Cousin. But they have very different ideas about not acting as desperate as they feel about their bleak love lives. Who knew God would have His own plans of true love for each of them?

For a limited time, I’m offering early access to all five books of the Sushi series exclusively through my website.

📖 Why purchase direct?
• Get the book weeks before it appears on Amazon.
• Receive a special gift for buying from my website (details below).
• Support me directly — this helps me keep writing more stories.
🛍 Claim your early access copies here!

What about Amazon?

For those who prefer Amazon, the books will be available for preorder starting next week at a special preorder sale price of $5.99, with their official releases happening monthly from July to November.

Either way, you’ll get the full books — but if you’d like early access + bonus, I’d love to have you buy from me directly.

✅ All 5 books
✅ Early access (before they’re available on Amazon)
✅ Exclusive bonuses for direct buyers

✨ Bonuses

I love giving readers little extras, so everyone who purchases a book directly from me will receive a special bonus for that book — just my way of saying thank you.

✅ Each book has its own unique bonus (annotated chapters, recipes, character Q&A, and more).
✅ Bundle buyers will also receive a Bonus Epilogue: “Grandma’s Tea Table”

Whether you grab just one book or the full series, I hope these small gifts make the story even more special.

Sushi for One bonus:
Lex's Prayer Journal: A heartfelt collection of Lex's private prayers and reflections as she navigates family pressure, faith struggles, and unexpected romance.

Christian Romance Books Progress Update + A Peek at What’s Coming Next

Hi everyone! I have some fun writing news to share.

I just finished inputting edits from my editor for my Christian romantic comedy suspense novel, Year of the Dog. However — in true writer fashion — we caught one little loose thread that needs tying up. So, I’ll be adding a short scene to fully wrap up the story. After that, the book will be fully edited, proofread, and ready!

What’s next? I’ll be diving into my Christian Regency romantic suspense novel, Lady Wynwood’s Spies, Volume 8: Traitor. I had already written a few chapters before finishing Volume 7, but since I made a few tweaks during the editing process, I’ll be revising those chapters to make sure everything flows smoothly. I also have a bit more research to finish before I can fully immerse myself in Volume 8.

Thank you so much for following along on this journey! And if you’d like to get behind-the-scenes updates, early chapters, and bonus content, I post regularly on Patreon:

Behind the Scenes in my Christian Regency Romance: the Perfume in "Bidding on Treason"

There are two fictional perfumes mentioned in my Lady Wynwood’s Spies prequel novelette, “Bidding on Treason,” and I actually had a lot of fun figuring out what they were.

Mrs. Whichard’s expensive French perfume Enchanté Nocturne is based off of Christian Dior Poison. It has the following notes:
Top Notes: Plum, wild berries, anise
Middle Notes: Jasmine, incense, cinnamon, honey, rose
Base Notes: Vetiver, musk, sandalwood, cedar, amber
Mrs. Whichard’s perfume is obviously much less complex, but it still has the plum, cinnamon, and cedarwood notes from Poison.

The perfume Melinda suggests for Lena, Sauge Marine (Marine Sage) is based off of Jo Malone London's Wood Sage & Sea Salt. It has the following notes:
Top notes: Ambrette Seeds, Sea Salt
Middle note: Sage
Base notes: Red Algae, Grapefruit
I liked how it evoked the wildness of the sea, the quiet of the wilderness, and the freshness of grapefruit, reflecting Lena’s connection to nature and her desire for freedom.

Do any of you like perfumes? I don’t often wear them because of my allergies, but I like spraying a handkerchief or a sachet and sticking it in my clothes drawers.

Want to read “Bidding on Treason”? Subscribe to Tier 2 or higher on my Patreon to get access.
