Born in Michigan, I've never strayed far from the beaches of the Great Lakes State. Armed with a big imagination, I would sit in the woods surrounding my house for hours just daydreaming. After losing my mother to ALS I've vowed to make the most of my life and never ignore my imagination again. I now spend my time with my two beautiful daughters and husband, three crazy cats and many characters trying to make their stories known.

My debut novel Gifted will be released August 4th 2012!

Gifted book
Plagued by recurring dreams of a faceless, yet strangely familiar man, and struggling to adapt to unique powers, Morgan Cauldwell moves halfway across the country to Manchester Academy. Once at MAC, Morgan meets the mysterious Chase Thomas. He knows more about Morgan than she knows about herself, and through him, Morgan learns she is Gifted. With the help of Chase and the Gifted Council, Morgan begins to learn how to control and develop the powers that have kept her isolated her whole life. While the mysteries of her dream man begin to unfold, Morgan’s powers quickly surpass even the Council’s expectations. But how much power should one person be allowed to possess…and at what price? Morgan finds herself face to face with her worst nightmares, where nothing is as it seems and not all Gifted are content with the powers they’ve been given.
