There’s something magical about a new cover. When that file pops up in my inbox from my publisher’s art director, it’s indescribable! Now that it’s May and catalog time for booksellers, I’ve just seen the cover for my 12th novel, Tidewater Bride, releasing from Revell in January 2021. This cover echoes the story well and has a romantic, painterly texture. …

Meet Aimee Lilly
My first thought upon meeting the narrator of my last four books was her novel-worthy name! Aimee Lilly sounds like a heroine, contemporary or historical, take your pick. And after bringing A Moonbow Night, The Lacemaker, A Bound Heart, and An Uncommon Woman to life via her lovely narration, I’ve found she’s every bit as lovely as her name! And …
1918~1919
My grandmother was a girl of eight when the Spanish flu struck in 1918-19. She was one of eight children born to a poor family in rural southwest Virginia.

Her cornbread recipe is the one I grew up with and still make regularly to this day, a family favorite over many generations. Recently a reader …

Een Ongewone Vrouw
When my debut novel released in 2009, I never dreamed my books would make their way to Dutch readers. But the Dutch were the first to pick up The Frontiersman’s Daughter as a foreign-rights edition. Over time the covers have changed. Some of the titles have changed, too. Here are four of my most recent releases in Dutch. All are …
