Showers & Flowers


Springtime in Arizona

Do you know the saying about April showers bringing May flowers? We don’t get a lot of rain here in Arizona where I live. Despite that, springtime flowers decorate the Sonoran Desert with a lovely carpet of pink, purple, and yellow flowers. I love seeing the saguaro (pronounced sa-waa-row) cacti looking like giant men wearing hats made of white flowers. These lovelies are why I sneeze so much!

Peach Blossom Orchard

I’m writing a new book! It’s about two U.S. Army veterans who experienced the same tragedy in Afghanistan. They’re living separate civilian lives years later, when a friend vanishes in heavy fog during her morning run. The story is set in rural Oklahoma, and the heroin helps her mother run Peach Blossom Orchard. This photo is how I envision springtime there.

I’ll tell you more about the new book next month, but in the meantime, I’d love to help you discover some new titles you might enjoy adding to your library!

Imogene’s client has a special request. Only hitch: The client is dead.

To Dye For is a paranormal suspense in which a young woman is summoned to a mortuary to fulfill the dying wish of doing someone’s hair and makeup for her funeral. But when Imogene touches the hair, she gets something that feels like an electric shock. She discovers her client’s death, like her hair color, wasn’t as natural as everyone thought.

Want to Start a New Series?

I’ve joined with a group of other authors to give you free books for the month of May only! Each is a prequel to one of our series. I’m offering Hidden No More, the prequel to my Kayla Walsh Mystery Suspense Trilogy. Grab as many of these books as you think you might like by clicking on the green “May-stery”  image below.

And if you haven’t read the Kayla Walsh trilogy yet, there’s a link to that series when you click on the second image below. These edge-of-your-seat novellas take a young woman on a three-continent quest to deliver justice to a brutal killer.
