Exploring Unfinished Business with Ghosts & Second Chance Romance
The very first short story I ever wrote with First Coast Romance Writers was for Romancing the Holidays, Vol. 1. It’s a story titled, Grave Promises, and it features two characters who have unfinished business – with ghosts and each other. This second chance romance is snappy, witty, and haunting; I thoroughly enjoyed bringing their…

Hawaii Vaca Day 1: Pearl Harbor & USS Arizona
Visiting Pearl Harbor National Memorial & the USS Arizona Memorial was gorgious and humbling. I’m honored to pay my respects to the brave men and women who died on Dec. 7, 1941. Seeing all those names on the various monuments – men, women and children – and considering the ripple effect of the families who…

Hawaii Vaca | Arriving in Paradise
Derek and I made it to Oahu, Hawaii! We were upgraded to “premium select” for our 9.5 hour flight, so I felt very fancy in mini first class. And the view from our hotel room is spectacular.
