ABOUT ME

I've always loved a good mystery. Even as a young girl, my mother and I would scour the shelves of dusty used bookstores for old gothic romances.

​

These were the kind of stories where the male protagonist was a brooding, reluctant owner of an old mansion in a far-off land, perched on a cliff overlooking the churning sea. The female protagonist was typically young and naïve, posing a threat to those lurking in the shadows, determined to keep their secrets safe.

Telling stories has been a lifelong passion, and after many of life's twists and turns, I've returned to writing mysteries.

​

Now living in paradise on the Gulf Coast of Florida, in our floating home, I spend most of my free time with my husband and three kids. We love exploring the beaches, trying new recipes, tackling never-ending boat projects, and seeking out new adventures.

 

XOXO
