I grew up in St.Louis, Missouri and now reside in Colorado with my husband and two children. I began my  writing career being published for my poetry, lyrics and greeting cards; but have found my niche in the fiction world of romantic suspense. With a background in theatre, I work hard to add as much humor and mystery to my speaking engagements and interviews, as I do to the pages of my novels. I am a romantic at heart, creatively seduced by the allure of a full moon, a glass of red wine and the glow of candlelight.  I love to blast music real loud and dance around like a wild woman until my kids fall over laughing.  I believe in true love, in the power of forgiveness, in miracles and angels.  Rooted in a strong faith, I place my trust in Jesus and in the mysterious power of prayer. Any good thing in her comes from God.  Similar to the writing style of best-selling authors, Janet Evanovich and Mary Higgins Clark, my novels are sure to grab your attention, keep you guessing, and inevitably warm your heart.
