My biggest love is my family and the time I spend with them. Besides writing and reading, my basic interests include nature and the outdoors. I love swimming and hiking, or taking a stroll and shooting some pictures. I love animals in general and watching Animal Planet or the Discovery Channel.
Music
I listen to Rihanna, Avril Lavigne, Pink, Hinder, Carrie Underwood and Daughtry; just to name a few artists I enjoy. Matt Ramsey is another favorite. He is an upcoming star in Nashville, TN that I grew up with!
Movies
I love action/adventure, suspense and thriller movies. Bruce Willis in Die Hard is the perfect movie for me.
Television
My favorite TV shows are House, So You Think You Can Dance, Bones, I Survived on Biography and After the Attack on Animal Planet. I love watching anything about animals. Shark Week is a major event in my house.
Books
My Outer Banks Suspense Series - Altered Beginnings (Book 1) ~ Available Now, Predetermined Endings (Book 2) ~ Available Now, and Accelerating Circumstances (Book 3) ~ In Progress by Destiny Booze!
My favorite authors are Tami Hoag and Dean Koontz.
Heroes
There are so many heroes - my parents for their strength and support, my brothers for turning into greater men than I ever could have imagined, and my husband for too many reasons to name. My son is also a hero to me. He teaches me something new every single day.
My life is simple, some would even say boring. I work hard, dream big and play often. I believe I have the power to make my dreams come true. Through faith and a positive attitude, I know that I can achieve success for myself and my family.
I live in Botetourt County, Virginia with my husband and son. I strive daily to be the best wife, mother and writer that I can be. My family is always priority number one.
I want happily-ever-after. I want to believe in the basic good of the world. At the end of the day, I want to be proud of myself!
Writing is my calling and passion. It is my dream. What's yours? I want to hear from you!
And remember, make-believe is more than a child's game!

Current Releases: The Outer Banks Suspense Series (Read separately, or as a series):
..
Altered Beginnings (Book 1 of The Outer Banks Suspense Series)
The headline in the small town newspaper read Young Woman Missing, Presumed Dead or Worse.
Leigh Lawson returned to Nags Head, North Carolina after four years with a huge shock. That big and bold headline was about her! Everyone thought she was dead!
The truth was that she was doing well. While gone, she had gotten clean from drugs and worked hard to get her bachelor’s degree in engineering. With her life back on track, she returns home in hope that she will receive a warm welcome. Instead, she gets the townsfolks' disdain.
Everyone hates her, everyone except Jason Altarez, an ambitious and resilient reporter with his sights locked on Leigh. He chases her with oozing charm and romance, but does he really want her or is he after his next story?
Leigh’s life soon spirals out of control when the police recruit her for an undercover assignment. They want her to go back to the life of her troubled teenage years, back into the drugs, and help them to bring the local drug supplier to conviction. It may be Leigh’s only chance to redeem herself with her family and friends. If she can complete this one assignment, the town will forgive her. The only problem is that she needs to figure out how to stay alive in the process…
Jason is her continuous partner through it all, proving his dedication to her as he struggles to keep her safe. Leigh wants to believe he is a man of his word. She wants to believe that her heart isn’t completely foolish for falling for him, especially when she discovers evidence that Jason may be working for the very drug dealer that Leigh is trying to have arrested. Will he betray her in the end or will he demonstrate the most romantic notion of all – that love at first sight truly exists? Altered Beginnings Book Trailer
Predetermined Endings (Book 2 of The Outer Banks Suspense Series)
Angelica Chappell’s story makes huge headlines. Only a few months ago, she released a new pharmaceutical drug called Krytonix that effectively slows the spread of cancer cells. She has no idea her story will attract the attention of a serial killer. Suddenly, she is a target whether she realizes it or not. This killer is interested in more than her life. He wants her reputation, too. His first mission is to sabotage Krytonix.
William Pierce worked undercover for the FBI for five years to bring down a ruthless mobster that he ultimately is forced to kill. Two months passes by since that assignment. Still, William saw things he couldn’t talk about. He did things he couldn’t talk about. He believes his soul is damned. Returning to “normal” everyday life isn’t an option. He isn’t the same man he used to be. He refuses to return to FBI headquarters. He becomes a rogue agent with an agenda.
These two characters literally collide when Pierce's agenda leads him to Chappell. It will take both of them to keep Angelica alive and to figure out who is trying to kill her. William soon finds himself developing feelings for Angelica. Too bad for her killer, William worked as a trained killer for the mob. Will he find her killer and hand him over to the legal system to see that justice is served or will he search and destroy? Predetermined Endings Book Trailer
