I am a writer who enjoys many facets of life but none more so than relationships. Be it between a husband and wife, brother and sister, mother and son, all relationships fascinate me and they are the centerpiece of my fiction books. In that light, my books bring confilct and suspense to unique couples. My heroes and heroines have their love tested by demons who reside within and without. In my eyes, it is in the trials and tribulations we all face, in the darkest hours of our lives where our strength of character is truly created, shaped, and defined. If we are lucky enough to emerge into the light once more that's when our character can shine.  My early influences were Stephen King, Mary Higgins Clark, Harold Robins, Jacqueline Susan and VC Andrews. As such, my works tend to be a grand mash-up of drama, horror, suspense, action, intrigue, and, of course, intimate relations. As of this writing, I am 53 years-old, the mother of two adult daughters, grandmother to one, and wife to my husband, Roy, for the last 34 years. I live and write in my hometown of New London, CT. I began my writing career in the 4th grade when the class was given its first-ever Creative Writing assignment. I put pencil to paper and was instantly transported to a place I knew that I would never want to leave. I have been publishing my works since 7th grade. In my spare time I enjoy gardening and photography as well as cooking and baking. I also enjoy helping other authors bring their works to the world stage.
