I mix a heap of romance, a spoonful of suspense and spice, a dash of snark and laughter, over a base of history: that's my secret sauce for fiction.

After leaving the chaos of call-center management and graduating from child-rearing, I’d earned my peace and quiet. Time to write some romance.

I started writing novels in 2019, after spending the better part of the year researching genealogy. I published my first book about my ancestors in 2020. The Twirler Quartet romance series followed, which was set in Lincoln, Nebraska, in the 1960s through 1980s. The Romancing Our Roots series, featuring stories about DNA mysteries came later. Family is the cornerstone of every story that pulls at your heartstrings.

When I'm not writing or collaborating with other authors, I split time between several states visiting family and enjoying the itinerant author life. Home base is a farm in Nebraska, smack dab in the middle of the flyover states where my husband’s ancestors homesteaded over 150 years ago. You’re welcome to visit. It’s as easy as opening the book cover.
