I've always loved a good mystery. Even as a young girl, my mother and I would scour the shelves of dusty used bookstores for old gothic romances. The kind of romance that the male protagonist was a brooding reluctant owner of an old mansion; in a far-off land perched on the side of a cliff overlooking the churning sea. The female protagonist was typically young and naïve and somehow a threat to those who lurked in the shadows endeavoring to keep their secrets safe. Telling stories has been a lifelong passion, and after many of life's twists and turns, I am back to writing romances and mysteries. I enjoy spending time with my husband and three kids, traveling, cooking, home decorating, and seeking out new adventures in my free time.
