Disgraced...

Lilly Talbot never imagined she would be starting her life over again. Losing her good name for something she didn't do forces her to move into an old lake house she inherited in Vermont. Upon arrival, she is shocked. Half the roof is about to slide into Lake Champlain. Even more upsetting, the man who can fix it will only agree if she trades him room and board for his labor. What will the good people of Haley think of her sharing a house with the handsome bachelor?

A man with a past...

Connor "Mac" MacQueen, once one of the infamous Whiz Kids of Wall Street, spent three years in prison for insider trading. Only one thing sustained him during his time inside, the thought of owning Point Cottage, a home he'd fallen in love with years ago.

Secrets and lies...

Now someone is trying to drive Lilly from her home. Is it someone from her past? Mac has secrets of his own--that could ruin lives if revealed. But if Lilly and Mac are to have a future together they must first delve into the past for answers and accept some difficult truths about each other. Only then, will they know if true love is in their hearts.

Autorenporträt

I never set out to be an author. My goal was always TV news. During a break from college, I was fortunate to get an internship with Associated Pressa real prize for a broadcast major. A few months into the job, I made a catastrophic mistake, quoting a source incorrectly. I'd rewritten a few words to make the sentence flow better. Unfortunately, my "re-arranging" altered the source's meaning, and my boss was apoplectic. The red-faced bureau chief fired me on the spot, muttering under his breath that I should try my hand at fiction.

After working in TV newsgetting up at four AM really sucked I spent time in advertising, produced radio and tv commercials, telecourses for a southern university, training at another southern university, and a stint in healthcare; I was still searching for "the best" job, for me. After nearly two decades, the words of my former AP bureau chief still rang in my head. Fiction. Maybe it was time. Our children were grown. My husband offered to take on nightly dinners and our big Lab, Brody, was ecstatic to have a stay-at-home mom. Finally, I was on my way! But where was I going?

Well...growing up near a lakeside resort townspending a lot of time at my dad's marinaI was inspired to create quirky, cozy, friendly Haley, Vermont. Most of my main characters are thirty-somethings. They've faced failed relationships, weathered job changes and are looking for lovewhether they own up to it or not. Many are in need of a second chance, and it's up to me to give them one. Watching my characters achieve their destiny through personal growth, strong friendships, and facing their life challenges head-on, is my goal for every story. Enemies to lovers are a special favorite of mine.

My husband and I live near the beautiful coast of North Carolina. When I'm not writing, we love taking Brody, our black Lab, and our small grandchildren to the beach for walking or sand castle-building. My "other" pleasures are reading, water aerobics, indulging my sweet tooth, and long lunches with my friendsin no particular order.
