Truly, I’m one of those low profile authors who likes to hole up in my cabin loft and just write. But when a book releases that comes to a screeching halt! So here’s some glad news to share on the book front. I promise to post more cabin pics later:) I’m thrilled and thankful to share a starred review just …

For my readers who request large print/hardback editions, here it is! I’m always intrigued when a new cover is used. This one I like very much with the woman’s back to the reader, that lovely parasol, and the garden or lane she is focused on. Intrigue! Romance! Shadows! Historical fireworks! Here are links for those who need it… Thorndike Press …

Reviews are starting to come in from major trade publications like RT Review, USA Today, and such. I’m very grateful for this top pick by RT Review. Given this story was written at a time when I had nothing much to give, I can only credit the infilling of the Holy Spirit for any accolades/praise. HE truly is the Father who …

I’m back:) Heartfelt thanks to those of you who have waited patiently for me to unpack my last box!

For now we are finalizing the big move and getting ready to go. Here’s the road leading up to the cabin, taken …

Ellie is in audio format and I’m thrilled! For friends who are audiophiles, here’s the link. The lovely Angela Brazil narrates all three books in the series and you can have a ‘wee listen’ as Silas would say. Ellie looks quite coy here. Love the blue dress:) Happy end of May to you!
