Favorite musical artist.  Do you listen to music when you write?  What? There are so many…can’t name just one. I listen to music all the time, especially when I write. Music is an inspiration. I like everything from classical…rock…to metal…my son is a Bassist in a metal band.

I have been writing as long as I can remember and became serious about a year ago to share it.

Describe your perfect evening. 
I’m a busy woman…two jobs…two kids and many pets. So my perfect evening would be to get everything done by 8pm in the evening and then write or read. A 36-hour day would be perfect.

Where do you get your inspiration?
Many inspirations…reading, music, the beach, sunsets, my kids…but most of all – my parents. They have always been my inspiration. They have the greatest love of all. They are my real-life ‘fairy-tale’.

Read…Listen to Music...or work on another book I’m writing.

Danielle Steele

Best book you ever read.
Tough question…there are so many talented authors and great reads that I’ve enjoyed and have touched my heart. If I have to pick my favorite Danielle Steele book, it would be Journey.

My Mom. She is the woman I admire most. She is beautiful, loving, strong and wise.

I would love to meet Danielle Steele, the woman who has inspired me to write.

What advice would you give someone who aspired to be a writer?
Write from your heart and never give up….Persistence!

  Closure...a gripping FBI search grounded by an as-yet-unrealized love story…Jess, a young FBI profiler is compelled to save the fourth victim from a sexual predator, only to put her life into the hands of a serial killer.
 Amazon  Kobo            Barnes and Noble  Smashwords

CLOSURE - An elite FBI task force tracks online predators while they hunt their prey. A series of murders in Presario Heights has forced Special Agent Jessica Resario to follow her gut instinct to save the next victim. Supervisory Special Agent Tom Erickson removes her from the case. The only place to escape the danger is her family beach home. She hadn’t been there since her parents were murdered. The level of intensity climbs higher with her discovery of postcards marked “I Crave You”. Old ghosts, secrets, imminent threats and an inevitable attraction to Tom send her on an emotional roller coaster. If that wasn’t enough, she opens the door to a man she thought was dead. Tom is stabbed and his case files go missing…high emotions put Jess at the killer’s mercy.

Suddenly reality hit her. She let no one in. Brave at work, yet in her personal life, she didn’t have the courage to confess her true feelings to Tom. The murder of her parents ten years before kept her from loving, for fear of losing again. All she had was her work, and her work put her life into the hands of a serial killer.


     Unforgettable Kiss
One kiss leaves Meghan questioning her decision to never love again.

She believed her successful Spa would fulfill her life until a business seminar takes her to a golf resort in Arizona. Meghan’s love of golf gets her paired up with a man she doesn’t know. The rest of the world does. Eric Nolan is the most sought after actor in Hollywood and the most eligible bachelor in the hearts of many women. Eric draws out hidden desires Meghan never imagined and leaves an unforgettable kiss etched in her memory. One kiss leaves her questioning her decision to never love again. An emotional struggle to love again cannot stop the passion that unravels. But perhaps Meghan’s ex can. Released on early parole without her knowledge and he’s had the time to develop an obsession. Eric races to save her. He reaches the door, only to hear the gun shot.
