She longs for some other way,
they both could stay
lost inside forever
that now echoes yesterday.
What if the love of your life was on the other side?
Music has always captivated Colbie, and she was sure that music would escort her to her destiny. But then, lying on a cold operating table, Colbie’s heart stopped, and her life ended. Then, something miraculous happened. In an inex-plicable new world, Colbie comes face to face with Michael and she realized that she has always heard the music.
What if you had to choose between love and life?
When she wakes up in the sterile hospital room to a painful recovery, she longs for the peace she abandoned when she returned to Earth. Back in her own world, Colbie is struggling with fate as she tries to once again, hear the music.
Will fate and love strike the right chords for Michael and Colbie?
Born and reared in Mississippi, I love the South and all the charms it borders provide.
My debut novel, The Point, has received raving reviews on Amazon and Goodreads worldwide. I have been humbled and overwhelmed by the outpouring support I’ve received. I am excited about the release of my latest novel, Michael’s Heart, and hope it is celebrated as enthusiastically as my last.
In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my husband of 33 years on our farm, doing anything with my three adult children, and playing with my amazing grands. I also enjoy hanging out with my friends, writing music, community theater and am always plotting my next novel with coffee in hand.
One of my favorite quotes is by Douglas Everett.
“There are some people who live in a dream world, and there are some that face reality; and then there are those who turn one into the other.”
I am a firm believer that everyone has a dream placed inside them, and life is too short not to make that dream a reality.

Appearances can be deceiving. And in Southern California, where the sun shines almost every day and make-believe has its own industry, it’s hard to tell what is real and what is merely illusion. Two inquiries come to MDPI on the same day that seem like fairly straight-forward missing person cases. But it doesn’t take long to discover there’s nothing ordinary about the disappearance of two beautiful sisters from Minnesota and an estranged heiress who has never touched her eight-figure fortune.
While Madeline’s partner, Mike Delaney, heads down to Los Angeles to search for his cousin’s vanished girlfriend and her sister, Madeline heads to San Luis Obispo in hopes of picking up a twelve-year-old trail at a Catholic boarding school. Their separate pursuits lead them into a world where a frightening reality hides behind a glossy veneer. With several lives hanging in the balance, Mike and Madeline are faced with daunting odds and ruthless criminals who will kill to keep what they have taken.
Though I was always an ardent reader, I was convinced I couldn’t string sentences together if my life depended on it. Fortunately for me, when I was looking for something creative I could do from bed—if my mystery illness progressed to that point—I decided to try my hand at it. No pressure, no expectations. I didn’t tell anyone what I was up to. I just wanted to see if I could string sentences together and tell an interesting story.
I remembered a quote by Hemingway, “Write about what you know.” With this mandate, I chose the time spent living with my husband in the French Quarter of New Orleans as the backdrop for my story. I typed out my first two paragraphs on my forty-third birthday. I finished that book on my next birthday, and started my second the same day. I now consider those my “practice books”.
As my still-nameless illness progressed, I continued running the family business and continued to write. Nine years after my symptoms began, I finally received a correct diagnosis: Lyme disease, and more specifically, late-stage Lyme, because it had been allowed to progress untreated for so long.
Though the pain was almost unendurable, I clung to my writing like a life preserver. It allowed me to crawl up inside my head, out of my body, giving me brief respites from the vast array of pains.
Though I would never wish this disease on anyone, I can honestly say I am grateful for the path my life took, for it gave me the gift of writing. I now have nine published books, all of which have special significance for me. I write general fiction, mysteries and some nonfiction.
Once Upon a Lyme: The Tale of Two Journeys, is the detailed account of the path my mystery illness led me down as I sought help from over two-dozen doctors, and the gift of writing that was the unexpected upside of being so hopeless ill.
Finding Ruth was inspired by a previously unseen photograph of my mother taken when she was nineteen. I found it as I was going through her things prior to her move into a skilled nursing hospital. That gorgeous photograph of her looking so happy and full of promise made me realize how little I knew about her life before I came along. Because Alzheimer’s has taken away all her memories, I painstakingly reconstructed her life from public records, thousands of photographs, and what my brother, sister and I could remember. The message in the tribute to my mom is Ask while you have the chance.
As of this writing, I have just completed the fourth book in the Madeline Dawkins mystery series. I’m still in love with writing and I still squeal with joy to think that I’ve written eleven books and self-published nine of them. If there is a message in this, it’s Never discounts what you are capable of achieving.

Nite Fire: Smoke & Mirrors
by C. L. Schneider
This book starts with action and keeps it up throughout the entire story. There is plenty of danger and suspense and I was on the edge of my seat for a lot of it. I love the character of Dahlia and reading about all the things that she has been through. There are many great characters in this story. The author created wonderful worlds with wonderful and interesting creatures with great attention to detail. The first two books were fantastic and this one I thought was even better. I highly recommend this book.
The Brass Compass by Ellen Butler
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
The Brass Compass by Ellen Butler is a historical fiction story taking place in World War II. Lily Saint James, an American spy, is sent to work for a family in Germany. This story is great. There is a lot to this story and I did not want to put it down and wanted to read all the way through. Lily was a fascinating character and I felt like I was right there by her. I really enjoy stories based on historical facts and put into a fiction story. I hope to see more of these books in the future by Ellen Butler.

Furbidden Attraction: A Cursed Romance by R. O’Leary
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
FURBIDDEN ATTRACTION is a quick and easy read that I read in one sitting. It has a really nice cadence with a nice give and take between the 2 main characters.
Secondary characters all play a roll in the story and while they are obviously being introduced for future stories, their actions aren’t fillers.
This story has a sense of humor that I was not expecting “There was a strange man in her apartment, possibly a serial killer. A naked serial killer who clearly had a gym membership. ”
I look forward to reading more from this author in the future.

Cult (Feisty Lawyers Book 3) by Seelie Kay is an interesting story of women going missing from college campus and the usual troops from the operatives putting together all the pieces, going undercover and catching the bad guys.

Enemies of the Desert (Silent Secrets Series Book 3) by Lisette Kristensen is another exciting book in this series. It is a story of badass women who are trained in espionage and are members of an elite group that deals with terrorism. This series has me hooked is a definite page turner. Espionage and lies, secrets and terrorists, suspense and murder are only a fraction of what is in this story.
Blackbird is on her way to being one heck of an operator and she has been picked to be on a mission where her identity has been compromised by the one person who wants her dead.
This is one series that should be on your TBR list.

Steele Resolve by Gwyn McNamee
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Steele Resolve (The Hawke Family Book 6) by Gwyn McNamee is sadly the last book in this great series. I suggest you read all the books in the series in order so that you get the complete picture and backstories of all the wonderful characters. I have come to love all of the characters in this series and am glad that Gwyn included Luca as part of the Hawke family. This sexy M/M romance is a story where it is bad enough being a mob boss without throwing being gay into the mix makes for one suspenseful and explosive story.
Luca has come home and wants back into the Hawke family that he had when they were younger but when your are the son of one of the most .mob bosses, you are by default just as bad as your surname. What he didn’t expect was to find the one person who could make his life complete.
Byron can’t stop thinking about the man he had just had a one night stand and when that person turns up for a meeting with the Hawke’s he realises just how much of a mess his life is now in. Will he reveal the truth to the people he sees as family or will he walk away from the best thing that has ever happened.
This story was so good I am sorry to see the series end but can’t wait to see what Gwyn has in store for us in the future.

The Arrangement Duet Box Set by Madison Quinn
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
The Arrangement Duet Box Set by Madison Quinn tells the intriguing, interesting and at times complicated love story between Kenzie Rose and Nicholas Parker. Both characters are flawed and intense making this a roller coaster of a ride that all begins with a chance meeting one rainy afternoon.
I was drawn into this story from the very first page. I felt for Kenzie Rose and couldn’t wait to delve more into her backstory, she was just one of those characters you read and feel as if they are a real person and you become invested in them. Then comes Nicholas, who is just tragic! As a reader you can’t help feeling his pain. You want these two to overcome and succeed. I flew through the first book it was just that good and I couldn’t wait to continue on to the second. While good also, I felt like the second part dragged, maybe it was a bit drawn out and too descriptive and I found myself skimming at times to get to the good stuff.
I would definitely recommend this duet and just say to hang in there during the second installment it will all be worth it in the end.

Devil’s Due: Satan’s Devils MC Colorado Chapter #3 by Manda Mellett
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Manda Mellett, just keeps getting better and better! Devil Due is book 3 in the Colorado Chapter Series. I was totally captivated by this read right from the very beginning until the end and I never wanted to put the reader down. Each of Manda Mellett’s reads gets better and better. She continues to create characters that are intriguing and really give this story its extra depth. This book is fast-paced, engaging and action-packed. The characters have chemistry that is off the charts and i absolutely loved following these characters journey. Even though this story is part of a series, they can be read as a stand-alone, but for the ultimate read with a variety of characters that you will come to love and feel as though you are there alongside them, you need to read all of them in this series! Each book is just as brilliant and amazing as the one before, you will not want to put these reads down.
I highly recommend this book, and most of all this author she continues to really show me how amazing she is! Do not miss this read!

Steele Resolve by Gwyn McNamee is the sixth and final book in the Hawke Family Series. I wasn’t ready to say bye to this family so I put off reading the book until the curiosity got the better of me and I’m so glad I finally caved.
Bryon and Steele are a couple I want to hang out, actually I would love to hang out with the entire Hawke Family. They just seem like a group that knows how to have a lot of fun and each one of them love their partner and family like there is no one else.
I’m really going to miss each and every one of these characters, but feel like the series ended perfectly. Looking forward to seeing what Ms. McNamee releases next.
Never Let Me Go by A.M. Myers
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Never Let Me Go (Bayou Devils MC Book 6) by A.M. Myers is a romantic suspense that immediately dives right into the journey this story needs to go on. The opening scenes make your heart strings pull and you wonder where A.M. Myers will take these characters that have been introduced along with the others you know are waiting on the sides awaiting their chance to appear and make their own marks. I felt this story was beyond amazing and loved how the author laid out the sequences of events and their chain of reactions that occur. This is not a straight forward story, but one full of many elements that will keep you guessing and wondering exactly where key characters will fall.

Alex is the first book in Maddie Wade’s Eidolon Black Ops series that is a spinoff of her Fortus Security Series. We met Eidolon guys in the Fortus Series books and I was really excited when the writer decided to do a spinoff and give us Eidolon boys and their stories!!! I have read every single one of Fortus Security books and I know it will be the same with Eidolon Black Ops series as I absolutely love the universe Maddie Wade has created!

An Unexpected Sequel (Paranormal Talent Agency #4) by Heather Silvio was just as a fun read as the other three. I do think you should read the other three books in the series just so everything makes sense. Overall I liked the book. I thought it was fun and flowed well.

Smoke & Mirrors is the third book in the Nite Fire series.
I am absolutely in love with this series. All of the books are wonderful, this one is no exception. The characters come alive and the story has twists and turns that keep you fascinated. I don’t think there is ever a slow moment as you go through the story with Dahlia trying to piece together the clues. In each story it is getting harder and harder for Dahlia and the dragons to cover up what is happening behind the scenes that the humans have been so blissfully unaware of. I think chapter 35 broke me a little bit. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and I highly recommend this series. Looking forward to the next book!
Hidden Magic: A Sanctuary Chronicles Novella by India Kells
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Hidden Magic by India Kells is a Sanctuary Chronicles novel. This is a short book and a quick read but it is just as good as all her work usually is.
This book is a great paranormal romance book. Although it is short it never at any point felt rushed or like something was missing. The characters were well developed and interesting to read about. I really thought that Brant and Kat had a great chemistry.
The story itself was well paced and well developed. Although it was short the author covered everything to make it a great story. It had depth, it had action, it had romance. I honestly felt like I was reading a full length novel and was disappointed when I got to the end because I could have easily kept on reading.
If you haven’t discovered this author yet then I urge you to pick up this book!
Alex: An Eidolon Black Ops Novel by Maddie Wade
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Every time I pick up a book by this author I know I am in for a brilliant, action packed read and as I expected Alex was no exception. I always find that I am completely captivated by what I am reading, her storylines are exciting and I get sucked into the characters’ lives easily. There was action from the very beginning of this story and straight away I knew I was going to love the characters, Alex and Evelyn.
Evelyn (Siren) was a fantastic character to read about, full of sass and independence everything I love in a leading female character and I’m pretty sure I fell in love with Alex straight away! He was very loyal to his ‘brothers’ and his job but also as soon as he came face to face with Siren he knew what he had to do!
Their story really was a pleasure to read about and I loved seeing characters from the previous series appear too!
Another fantastic 5 star read from Ms Wade – I am looking forward to her next book already!
The Arrangement Duet Box Set by Madison Quinn
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
The Arrangement Duet is a box set including two wonderful reads that I loved every second of. When I first read the blurb for both books I did think that I had made my mind up about how the story would go so I was pleasantly surprised to be wrong! I loved the slow burn feel to the story and the characters Nicholas and Kenzie had an amazing amount of chemistry that did feel genuine. I loved that they both had their own past that they needed to work on and I was definitely rooting for them the whole way through both stories. The two characters may have come together because of an arrangement but it didn’t take long to see that there was going to be so much more to their story than this.
I loved both of these stories – I am really looking forward to reading more from Ms Quinn again in the future! Both stories were well written and I highly recommend this 5 star box set!
Smoke & Mirrors by C.L. Schneider
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Smoke & Mirrors is the third book in C.L. Schneider’s Nite Fire series. I really enjoy this series with its combination of fantasy and detective elements.
Dahlia Nite is now part of a special task force devoted to investigating paranormal crimes. Her powers as a half-dragon give her an edge when it comes to solving these crimes, as well as covering up any evidence that would expose the existence of supernatural creatures.
As the series progresses, the magical world Schneider has created becomes increasingly vast and detailed with a varied cast of supernatural and human characters. It’s been a while since I read the earlier books in the series, but Schneider does plenty to fill the reader in on important background details and remind them of what has happened.
It’s an action-packed book with mysteries to be solved and plenty of interesting, complex characters. Dahlia stands out as a strong, driven heroine. I also like Casey Evans with his compassion and humanness, and I enjoy the scenes with the two of them working together.
For me, this is a five-star book. It’s exciting and gripping and fantastic! I’d recommend it to fans of fantasy and mystery. If you want to see forensic science being applied to non-human victims, this is the book for you!
Tracking Numbers by Janice M. Whiteaker
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
This is the first book I have read from this author and she blew me away. I absolutely love MC books but this talented author exceeded all my expectations. This is the first book of the Lost Boys MC series. I could not put this book down once I started it. The characters are so real and raw they feel like they are a part of you. It only took me a couple of hours to devour this incredible book.
Kerri had a very hard life when she was growing up. Her dad was the boss of an MC gang and she always hated him. She now lives a simple life. Kerri loves her job but she doesn’t feel complete. She is approached by one of her dad’s men and her life changes from there. Kerri has to be watched because of things her dad has done. She can’t stand that life style so she is reluctant to get to know the man namedTracker. Kerri feels something for the man but it scares her to death. She doesn’t want to be like her father. Will Kerri take her wall down or will they get even more stronger?
I absolutely loved this book. The storyline has it all romance, suspense, and healing. You will fall in love with these characters right from the beginning. Kerri is a beautiful woman that knows what she wants. She doesn’t want the life that she had as a child. Kerri has become one of my favorite female characters of this year. She is a very strong woman that can bring the sass. Tracker is an alpha male that has a heart of gold. He had a very bad past but he is healing from it. Tracker has done some bad things but he wants to make it right. The way her treats Kerri will make you swoon. These characters have some steamy scenes that will make your temperature rise. I can’t wait to see what this author will write about next. Bring on Hawk..

Rewind by Rowan Shaw
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
I loved this….absolutely loved it. I don’t read M/M romances too often but this one intrigued me so I gave it a go. This is so much more than a romance between two people. It actually made me *feel* what it was like to be them….against every prejudice you can Imagine. From outting themselves and just showing affection in public to rejection from family and friends to public ridicule. They had a long road to journey down to get to their happy ending.
Enzo is amazing! So strong and smart! I loved everything about him. He has a heart of gold! His struggle to overcome made him who he became to be. Florian is a different sort of strong. What he had to overcome is not the same as Enzo but caused by the same “accident”. I almost feel he got the worst end of the deal. When they are together it’s easy to see how happy they both become by their smiles and gestures.
This is my first book by this author. I loved the writing..it is so easy to read and I finished this In one day. I couldn’t put it down. It is filled with suspense, charm and many lovely moments. My only complaint would be Enzos family. I felt that was left open ended. But really it’s a small issue in the grand scheme of things. The characters were great! I think I would love a Patrick in my life. He seemed a “no holds barred” kind of guy. I see the next book is out so I will be diving into that next.
