Overview: I grew up in a small rural town in Oklahoma where our favorite entertainment on summer evenings was to sit outside under the stars and tell stories. When I went to bed at night, instead of a lullaby, I got a story. That could be due to the fact that everybody in my family has a singing voice like a bullfrog with laryngitis, but they sure could tell stories – ghost stories, funny stories, happy stories, scary stories. For as long as I can remember I’ve been a storyteller. Thank goodness for computers so I can write down my stories. It’s hard to make listeners sit still for the length of a book! Like my family’s tales, my stories are funny, scary, dramatic, romantic, paranormal, magic. Besides writing, my interests are reading, eating chocolate and riding my Harley.
Genre: Romance Suspense
Secrets Rising: When Rebecca Patterson’s parents die in an automobile crash, she is shocked to find a note hidden in a locked drawer. "I thank you for what you’re doing for Rebecca. I know you’ll give her a good home and loving family, all the things I can’t … If she ever finds out you’re not her natural parents, you must not, under any circumstances, let her try to find me." Devastated by this revelation that her mother and father lied to her, weren’t really her parents, Rebecca determines to find her biological parents. She hires private investigator, Jake Thornton, a rugged man who dresses in black, has eyes the color of the midnight summer sky and dark hair a little too long and shaggy, as though he hasn’t taken time for a haircut lately. Jake knows from experience that his new client’s quest may not end happily. Her birth mother isn’t looking for her. She doesn’t want to be found. She isn’t waiting with champagne and roses to greet her long-lost daughter. Rebecca will likely be disappointed, and he’s not sure she’s strong enough to withstand another disappointment after the twin shocks of losing her parents to death and discovering she’s adopted.
Jake is attracted to his tall, willowy client with her shiny blond hair and blue-green eyes that seem a combination of the trees and the Texas sky. He yearns to touch her, make love to her, smooth her brow, dig up loving parents for her, make everything all right. He knows that’s impossible. He’s loved and lost enough family to be wary of becoming involved with someone who needs a permanent relationship. His motto is "Love and let go," while Rebecca feels lost and alone and desperately needs to find someone to belong to. No matter how much he might want her, he can’t let her mistake passion for something else, can’t let her count on him for anything else when passion is all he has to give and all he wants to take.
Secrets Among the Shadows: Eliot Kane fears he’s a modern day Jekyll and Hyde. Eliot dreams in graphic detail about choking a woman. The next day, he learns that woman is the victim of a brutal murder. From his dream Eliot knows details about that murder that haven’t been released to the public, details only the killer can know. He seeks the help of psychiatrist Leanne Warner to learn if he’s a murderer, if he has a personality split and a monster named Edward lives inside his brain. Eliot doesn’t dare love Leanne because Edward wants to kill her.
Leanne looks out her bedroom window in the middle of the night and sees Eliot Kane leaning against a tree, watching her. He straightens when he sees her, stands erect and returns her gaze. In the pale glow from the corner street lamp, his eyes seem to blaze. She can almost feel the hatred coming from him. Evil surrounds him like an aura. It’s there in his stance, in the tilt of his head, in the very air around him, and it’s directed toward her. But that’s crazy. Eliot doesn’t hate her. Is she looking at Edward?
Anything You Can Do: Ares and Aphrodite … Antony and Cleopatra … Superman and Lois Lane … Bailey Russell and Austin Travers …
They can’t get along with each other, but they can’t get along without each other. Bailey likes to win whether in the courtroom or on the 10K race track. So does Austin. When the two meet, sparks fly in all directions. Bailey Russell’s life is pretty much perfect. She has a dog, a condo, and she’s on the fast track to becoming a partner in the small law firm where she works. Then Austin Travers shows up with his electric blue eyes and electric touch. He beats her in a 10K race, almost overtakes her in an impromptu swim meet and cooks a delicious meal while her cheesecake tastes like greasy cardboard. However, she takes him down in the courtroom and in a game of chess. The score is close to even. Then she learns he wants to change her law firm, merge it with a bigger one, disrupt Bailey’s life.
To her chagrin, Bailey finds herself attracted to the annoying man, but she remembers only too well the painful days of being a skinny, awkward adolescent, the butt of jokes about red hair and freckles and brainy women. Men like Austin Travers reserved their interest for beautiful women with soft voices and bust line measurements that exceeded their IQs. Austin soon realizes that Bailey is the most frustrating woman he’s ever met, a tiger, a force to be reckoned with. She makes him crazy, but all other women are pale ghosts beside her. She makes him feel vital and alive. If only he can figure out how to be around her for five minutes without wanting to strangle her.
