Hi there! I'm so glad you've wandered into the bits and bytes that make up my site on this vast web called the Internet—consider this your invitation to stay awhile.
I'm a storyteller who believes in the promise of second chances, the beauty of messy families, and the kind of love that is hard earned. My stories unfold in small towns where everyone knows your business (whether you want them to or not), faith is real and honest and happy endings are earned through tears, laughter, and grace.
Here, you'll discover flawed, relatable characters who fumble their way toward healing and grace and find love in unexpected places. Think sweet romance with emotional depth, community connections that feel like home, and faith that gets its hands dirty in real life.
Whether you're looking for your characters to fall in love with and root for or just want to escape to a place where love always wins, you've come to the right place.
Browse around to learn more about my books, the places I’ve created and get to know the woman behind the words.
Thanks for being here. Now grab some coffee or tea if you prefer and dive into the stories.

My Latest Book
Cherishing Her Hope
Welcome to the third book of the Home to Kittering Creek series one of the books I had quite a bit of fun working on.
Same small town, one more story.
Vince Tkachuk poured eight months and his own money into restoring the Blue Heron Inn, certain it would one day be his. Then the man who shook his hand on the deal died before anything was signed, and an outdated will left the inn to a niece nobody knew existed.
Rowan Mercer grew up shuffled between her mother’s house and foster homes, and she learned early not to get attached to anything that could be taken away. Now she travels to unusual places and shares them with her growing social media following. She’s parked her tiny home beside the Blue Heron only long enough to finish the renovations and sell. Vince can’t afford her price.
But the town has booked its 150th anniversary dinner in the inn’s dining room, and the only person who knows what still needs doing is the man who has already decided he’s given the Blue Heron enough.
Working side by side, Rowan catches Vince watching her when he thinks she isn’t looking. One evening on the porch, she tells him something she’s never told anyone, and he answers with a truth of his own. A lingering look becomes an almost-kiss. The next time, neither of them pulls away.
Then a contract arrives that could take her career to a new level, just as the Blue Heron is nearly finished.
For the first time in her life, Rowan has found a place she wants to stay. The question is whether she can trust that Vince wants her there too.
If Rowan sells, Vince loses the inn he built with his own hands. If she stays, she risks walking away from the opportunity she has spent years building toward.
For the first time in her life, Rowan has found a place she wants to stay. The question is whether she can trust that Vince wants her there too.

Come to Kittering Creek

If you're looking for small-town stories filled with faith, family, and just the right amount of romantic tension, you’ve come to the right place.
Kittering Creek is the fictional town where all my sweet Christian romance series take place. It’s full of ranches, second chances, and characters who don’t always get it right the first time (or the second). But they’re trying. And somewhere along the way—through old grudges, unexpected reunions, and the occasional runaway steer—they find love and something deeper.
Want to dive in? Click on the picture above to get to a preview of all the books where you can buy the books (paperback or e-book) or. you can also meet the characters.
There’s family, there’s history, and sometimes there’s a feud or two. But everyone’s connected in some way—it’s a small town, after all.
I hope you find a story that gives you a chance to escape for a while. Maybe even one that makes you laugh, sigh, or stay up too late reading “just one more chapter.”
Thanks for stopping by.
Note: This is a work in progress as I write the books and populate the town so come back from time to time and find out what's happening!
