I realize it has been a very long time since I last posted here. To my regular readers, I especially want to apologize for that. I don’t have an excuse, but I do have a reason, and that reason will lead me to a very special announcement.

Last fall, I started a project that demanded much more of my time and creative energy than I was anticipating. It was a very large project and because it was something I had been dreaming of doing for a very long time, I put a lot of focus toward it, resulting in cutting down on some of my other commitments.

I think, when I tell you what this project was, you will understand why I needed to do that.

So, I am excited to announce that . . .

I have written and will be publishing a book! 

I’m over the moon about having finished this huge project. It is the fulfillment of a lifelong dream, and I am thrilled to have actually accomplished this thing I have been wanting to do since I was a little girl.

For the past six months, I have been working feverishly on this book. It is a historical novel set in the Victorian era. The publication date is set for May 6th. The book will be available for purchase on Amazon at that time.  Read on for more details about the book and get a glimpse of the cover design!

Without further ado, here is the description from the back cover of the book:

He is the proud son of a wealthy industrialist. She is the devout daughter of a respected minister. When their paths cross and sparks fly, will they be able to find common ground?

William Hanson is not a happy man. Forced to spend the summer at a religious retreat, he is anything but pleased with the direction his life has taken. He is a man of strong ideals, but expressing his views has gotten him into trouble one time too many.

Adelaide Holbrook is content with her simple life. She is known for her beautiful singing, her generous spirit, and her position as the daughter of a well-respected minister in the community. She has been looking forward to spending the summer at Cottage City on the beautiful island of Martha’s Vineyard. The village of pristine little seaside cottages and sparkling blue waters is the perfect setting for something special to happen. Still, when she meets William, she is not expecting the strong emotions he evokes in her. 

He’s a man at a crossroads, forced to make a choice. She’s a woman newly awakened to the possibilities of love. Will the two find a way to bridge the gap between them?

Don’t miss this captivating historical romance set in the Victorian era!
