It's Been a Long Time
Life is constantly moving, like a river, or an ocean. Or sometimes a big, nasty swamp. lol
I used to love blogging but when things change, responsibilities change, time changes, then I had to say good-bye.
So I'm just popping in to say hello. How's everything going? Any new books out? New babies?
And Happy Friday! Have a wonderful weekend.

Woohoo, Undercover Love is now available!!!
So I put out my next indie-pubbed book, Undercover Love. This is the second in the Women of Manatee Bay series.
If you liked Rachel in the first book, then you might want to read about her very special romance. :-)
When rule-bending PI Rachel McCormick stumbles across evidence that not only incriminates the town mayor of corrupt dealings but endangers her sister’s welfare, she's determined to put the politician behind bars. She doesn't count on straitlaced cop Grant Harkness—a rumored lady’s man—getting in her way. Not only does he warn her off the case, but he takes her heart into custody with his surprisingly compassionate nature and endearing soft spot for a cat named Helga. Burned by an ex-fiancé and jaded by the unseemly aspects of her job, Rachel tries to ignore the bad boy’s claims that he’s been redeemed by the God she stopped trusting long ago. But love is not so easily dismissed. Rachel is torn between the bitterness that has fueled her life and the man whose passion stokes within her a new fire, one which could burn away the ashes of her past if only she could learn to trust again.
Available at
AMAZON
KOBO
BARNES & NOBLE
