Interview and Book Giveaway with Catie Cordero, Author of Ramble and Roar

  Hello, folks! I know I haven't blogged in quite a while--I've been keeping busy cramming in as many hours of writing as I can this year. BUT I have to share about author Catie Cordero. Isn't her book cover above gorgeous? It's original artwork and she and her husband, Jonathan, modeled for … [Read more...]

More about my latest mystery, Guilt by Association, and my road to publication

I was honored that Guilt by Association was chosen to be the March read for the Avid Readers of Christian Fiction book club. I'd never done Facebook Live before, so I was a bit terrified (it is LIVE, I discovered, after a trial run in which I was murmuring to myself on camera and jolting it about). … [Read more...]

Ask anyone who's really close to me, and they'll tell you that there's this mysterious LULL I always experience immediately after I launch a book into the world. … [Read more...]

Today I'm so glad to welcome author Jaime Jo Wright to my blog. Jaime's such an interesting gal and we have some things in common--she loves Edgar Allan Poe, she loves coffee, and she knows her way around a lethal weapon (she bowhunts).

A stranger is wearing her missing father's coat.
And he isn't saying why…

The last place Rosalyn Snow expects to find her father's coat is beneath Exeter's old Exe Bridge.

Especially not on the back of a man fleeing the police.

Convinced the stranger holds the truth she’s spent years searching for, Rosalyn brings him home for Christmas. But Simon avoids giving answers, and what little he reveals only deepens the mystery.

As Dunn House fills with glittering guests, whispered ambitions, and holiday celebration, Simon moves through society as though he belongs there... yet he’s just as at home among the vagrants on the docks. And when Simon’s carefully guarded past reaches Dunn House during the Twelfth Night celebration, the fragile peace of the estate begins to unravel.

What has become of her father?
And who is the man wearing his coat?

Bringing Simon Balfour home might unravel Christmas.

Discovering who he is will make it unforgettable.
