Thanks for stopping by!

I write Regency romance and, in my spare time wrangle a golden-eyed terrier and a five six pound chihuahua. (She gained a pound!) They guarantee I step away from my desk for dinner and walks.

NEWS…

Both of my recent releases, Her Impeccable Scoundrel and Love’s Perilous Road, a Bluestocking Belles Collection with Friends are now available for purchase and are receiving great reviews!

In fact, Her Impeccable Scoundrel is a finalist in the 2025 N. N. Light Book Awards!

 But I have more news!

Only 99 cents, a Couple of Oldies but Goodies

Unexpected Courtships, a Regency Romance Duet

This set includes two of my earlier books, Liliana’s Letter and Courted by the Earl, plus a bonus short story, The Ghost of Depford Hall.

Two ladies who never expected to marry…
Two noble gentlemen, each in need of a wife…

Two novellas plus a bonus short story:

LILIANA’S LETTER

A promise to his long-dead sister forces Lord Grigsby back into society to broker the marriage of his disreputable nephew to the heiress whose money can save the earldom.

Liliana Ashford has been hired to help an heiress pass muster with the ton and snare a titled husband. Though, if she had a magic wand, she’d turn her charge’s fiancé back into the toad he truly was.

But she never wished him dead! As the young Earl’s sordid death evokes the scandal of the season, a shadow from Liliana’s own past appears, threatening her carefully crafted world. Grigsby sets about finding his nephew’s killer…and Liliana’s secrets. Meanwhile she scrambles to make a new match for the girl, because finding a husband of her own is out of the question—or is it?

COURTED BY THE EARL

Chasing a rumor of a clandestine marriage, the reluctant new Earl of Hackwell combs London for his late brother’s secret wife and son, anxious to return the title, find the murderous woman, and head back to his regiment.

Annabelle Harris came to London to find her disgraced sister, the mistress to the Earl of Hackwell. But the Earl has been murdered, Annabelle has his son, and the boy’s mother, her sister has disappeared again.

Now she must clear her sister’s name, dodge the handsome new Earl’s investigating, and keep him from taking the boy away. When their paths converge, the reluctant Earl and the independent lady find themselves rethinking their goals, and battling the real murderer together.

Unexpected Courtships is on sale for 99 cents, Dec. 15, 2025-Jan. 15, 2026 and is part of the Historical Romance Sale event at Bookfunnel. Click the link below to link to Unexpected Courtships and other great historical romances.

Still available for preorder, release day Dec. 20th:

Merry Belles, a Bluestocking Belles Collection with Friends

Just in time for the holidays, seven charming stories of romance from award-winning and best-selling authors:

• A murder brings a lady and her lost love together, just close enough to heal old wounds.
• A young lady must foil a friend’s betrayal to have her Yuletide wish for love come true.
• A widowed lord’s new housekeeper tames his rowdy boys and pierces his lonely heart.
• A lady determined to find her wayward young son finds herself stranded with the persistent earl trying to woo her out of widowhood.
• Will restoring a family manor together help two people acknowledge a secret attraction and claim a future together?
• A soldier’s wife is determined to find her missing husband, even if she must walk the length and breadth of England with her children in a wheelbarrow.
• Home from the wars, a soldier is shocked to learn that his fiancée plans to wed someone else. Can he reach her in time to prevent the nuptials?

My contribution to the collection is Lady Loughton’s Last Wager. If you’ve read A Wallflower’s Midsummer Night’s Caper, you’ll remember Lady Loughton as the elegant but somewhat harried mother of that story’s heroine. As you can imagine, this is an “older” romance: the widowed Lady Loughton gets a second chance at love with the determined earl who’s been pursing her.

Release Day for Merry Belles is December 20th, but you can preorder your copy today: https://books2read.com/u/mvRGPj
