Starting a new series

Harley Fremont and Gemma are back in a new series! They have returned from their adventure in Alaska to build a home and dog training ranch in Santa Barbara. You'll be reunited with several beloved characters from previous novels in the Harley Fremont series. In addition, you'll meet new characters and new dogs. You'll find they have several new adventures in store. The first novel in the series should be available late Summer or Fall this year.

New novel available

Duke's Last Daughter is now available as an ebook. The paperback version will be released soon. Also, the audiobook (available on Amazon and Audible) will be released soon.

All nine books in the Harley Fremont series are now available in audiobook form with Amazon or Audible.

Happy reading and listening.

The new novel

Duke's Last Daughter is the newest novel. It will be in reviewers hands by the end of the week.

Novel 10 progressing

Still working on the next novel. Took some time off for vacation days, holidays, and lazy days. I am getting back into the writing. In this novel, Cassidy Alonso is learning that her childhood was riddled with lies. What she does about it varies from ignoring it, hedging around it, facing it, and demanding to know more. If you're like her, your everyday self depends on the foundational basis provided from your nuclear family. What lies from them might upset your balance? How would you react after finding you freely shared those lies, not knowing then hurtful they were? How do you think you would live your life? Would you be a lie spreader too? Would you hedge around the truth? Would you demand the truth be told at all times? Would it change how you raised your children?

New book underway

Just started a new novel. The main character is Cassidy Alonso who is learning that most of what she believed about one of her parents was lies. How would you feel to learn the parent you adored, the one you depended on, was a consummate liar? Her parent doesn't lie because of their job (so, not a spy), but because they can. The lies span from small things to things that will haunt Cassidy.

Now Available: Alaska Outlier

Join Harley Fremont and her K-9 partner, Gemma, on an Alaskan adventure that begins as a celebration, which devolves into something darker. The trails are difficult, the weather is not on their side, and there are surprises in store. Harley discovers the task is harder when the stakes are higher.

Paperback is available on Amazon.
Ebook will be out soon.

Book 9 progress

Alaska Outlier is out to reviewers! Should be a month or so from publication.

Making progress

Taking my time on this one. Still, I am making progress. Included in the adventure is a wedding that takes places in Juneau, Alaska. You'll find many, many names mentioned as Harley gets to meet all the women attending the wedding and Bill meets the men. Those names come from all the people who have supported my writing efforts as the series progressed. Some are reviewers, some are family, and some are friends. It's been a pleasure to create this series, and it truly helped to have so many people offer support along the way.

Book 9 is underway

The Harley Fremont series is coming to a close. In novel nine, Harley and Gemma make their way to Alaska. All your favorite characters will be included along the way and you'll meet some new, interesting characters. Alas, it'll be a while before it is ready for your reading pleasure. I'm looking forward to sharing Alaska Outlier with you.
