Welcome, and thank you for visiting my author profile!
I am the author of The Bentley Family Adventures series, a collection of nine historical fiction novels that explore rich historical landscapes through the lives of the Bentley family. Following this series, I delve into modern times with a five-part saga, A New Generation of Bentleys and Kings, which follows both the Bentley and King families as they navigate the complexities of the present day. These books are perfect for readers who enjoy tales of adventure, history, faith, clean romance, social issues, and resilient characters—both men and women who face life's challenges with strength and grace.
I have also published a standalone dark, supernatural, folklore-horror: Kyria's Curse.
Presently, I am beginning a new historical fiction series: The Life and Times of Ivan Yurkovich—a Ukrainian immigration story set in the Gilded Age. The first installment Voyage of the Seed Bearers, is set to be released on March 3rd, 2026.
I hope that through my stories, readers will not only come to know my characters but will feel a deep, personal connection to them. Above all, my stories are deeply rooted in faith, and they reflect my passion for the love of family and the commitment we must all make to preserve those important bonds.
A bit about me:
My love of reading and writing began early, growing up in a small town in Ontario, Canada. I spent much of my childhood immersed in books, often at the local library. At the age of nine, I had the honor of being featured on the front page of our local newspaper for reading the most pages in the library’s Summer Reading Program—a memory that still brings me joy. So, as you can imagine, it’s incredibly fulfilling to see my own books now on library shelves across Ohio, offering others the same pleasure I have always found in the pages of a good book.
In my personal life, I’ve been happily married to my best friend for seventeen years, and I am a proud mother of three adult children. I write these stories for them—to show them that no matter where you are in life, it is never too late to chase your dreams and make them a reality.
When I’m not writing, I’m at home with my two cats, Luna and Gypsy, who offer me endless inspiration. I also love gardening, travelling, and cheering on the Auburn Tigers Football team. War Eagle!
Thank you for taking the time to learn a bit about me. I hope my books bring you as much joy as they brought me while writing them.
May God bless you on your own journey.
