I WRITE FROM THE HEART
Some of my books are heartbreaking, others are heartwarming but, no matter what I write, I always write from the heart.
In the true stories I put myself in the shoes of others who share their stories with me. I try to feel what they felt, and in most cases this is easy since a lot of what I hear I experienced growing up.
In my true crime stories I also crawl inside the head of the characters — good and bad. I want to give my readers at least a glimpse of what could have been going through the minds of the people I investigate.
When I write crime fiction, after taking a deep breath, I delve into the mind of serial killers to present my readers a story that can make the hair on the neck stand on end.
My inspirational fiction stories are a mixture of truth and fiction, taking information known about others. Some may be friends from childhood, some just people I observe, learning bits and pieces of their lives, filling in the blanks with pure but believable fiction.
Of course not everyone will like all of my books, and this is okay. However, for the ones who do like what I write and my style of writing, I can promise you stories filled with heart, excitement and passion.
You can see all my books on my website.

MEMORIES - GOOD AND BAD
If I knew years ago what I know today, I could have titled my book, Bitter Memories: A Memoir of Heartache & Survival....My Father Was A Serial Killer. Not something I'd like to have included on a resume! However, most of my life, from earlier memories after my abduction, I suspected my father had killed numerous women over the years....26 women to be exact — that I now know of.
Read Bitter Memories and Drowning In Memories to learn the full story. See if you have the same suspicions I had for so many years.
NOTE: Bitter Memories is not for the faint of heart. It contains explicit language and sexual content, but this was my life as I remember it. With help from nightmares, many pieces of the puzzle were eventually filled in. Go to the website and pick up you copies today!

BEYOND BITTER MEMORIES
There are several books in the Memories Series. The following gives just a glimpse of two of these books.
Bitter Memories: A Memoir of Heartache & Survival is the true story of my early life, my own personal memoir, but it's also true crime.
Kidnapped by my own father at age three, then abused by many, this book tells the story of my fight to survive in a world of mean and cruel adults who tried to destroy me.
Drowning In Memories continues the story beyond those early memories. I didn't want to continue being a victim, but the choices I made were not always the best. For years my poor choices made me feel like a victim. And in many ways I still was.
I felt I was drowning, constantly looking for love in all the wrong places with all the wrong people. But as time passed and life did not improve, I finally had to face my past. I had to deal with the scars of abuse to move forward. I had to learn how to live the life of a survivor, not a victim. During this journey all memories were not bad.
To learn my full story I hope you pick up your copy soon! Here's the link to my website where you can learn more, watch some videos, and find links to Amazon and/or CreateSpace to order your choice of format.

ZIP TIES AND LIES: THE ONLY BOOK THAT EXPLORES THE COLDHEARTED - COLDBLOODED MURDERS OF TINA & ETHAN ANDERSON AND JIM DIMAGGIO
TRUE CRIME:
Who REALLY killed the Andersons? With all the apparent cover ups, do we know for SURE?
Who was behind the cover ups? After all this time this is still the question!
A 9-1-1 call to the San Diego police department on August 4, 2013 reporting a two-story home on fire in Boulevard, California is only the beginning of many harrowing events to follow.
After a woman’s body and the body of a dog is found inside a detached garage, murdered, a bloody crowbar next to the woman’s body, the dog shot in the head, the homeowner and two kids are reported missing.
Assuming homeowner, James Lee DiMaggio killed the children’s mother, Christina Anderson—the woman’s body discovered in the garage—setting his home on fire, he then kidnapped Anderson’s two children, Hannah age 16 and Ethan age 8.
The following day the remains of a child, burned beyond recognition, is found inside DiMaggio’s burned-to-the-ground home. And even this is only the beginning.
After a week-long manhunt, DiMaggio, maybe an innocent man, based on information from San Diego’s sheriff Bill Gore, is then shot down by the FBI in what appears to be actions of a firing squad.
The public has doubts on the validity of what is being told. Stories continue to morph, and more doubts arise. More and more lies brings the question of Hannah and Brett Anderson’s innocence into doubt—at least for the public.
But the story doesn’t end here.
This story is only beginning as a lawsuit has been filed by Lora DiMaggio, Jim DiMaggio's sister...
Learn the facts in Zip Ties and Lies, The Anderson/DiMaggio Case: Coldhearted - Coldblooded — the only book on the market that explores all facts and scenarios of what could have actually happened.

ELEVEN BOOKS COMPLETE
BITTER MEMORIES is a 6-book series.
Book 1: The names in this unforgettable story have been changed from those in real life. Remembering her horrifying life in as much detail as possible, the horrors that occurred are factual. This tale of the author's early life—a life on the run, dealing with hunger, fear and molestation, is an unnervingly gripping account of the extremes of neglect and mistreatment a child can undergo—and still survive. NOTE: The first in this series contains adult language and graphic content. It is the most heartbreaking. It is NOT a feel-good book.
Trophy Murders, the first in the Revenge Trilogy, is an action-packed crime story about a sadistic gang of killers, and Sarah's struggles with nightmares from the past while her uncle attempts to keep his own secrets hidden. This book contains parts based on the true story from Bitter Memories after Sarah goes to live with her uncle, the cop, and his heavy-handed wife, but parts of this story are also pure fiction. For the true story read Drowning In Memories, book 2 in the Memories Series.
Cutter's Revenge is book 2 and Evil times Two is book 3 in this series.
Also check out the books available in Audio and watch the awesome book trailers!
