The book that changed your life:
When I dove into the pages of Harry Potter for the first time, I felt as if I’d completely disappeared into another world. The experience taught me the power of words and imagination, along with the sheer joy that can come with reading. I have since hoped to bring a little bit of that escape and joy to others with my writing!
Your favorite literary character:
I have always loved Stephanie Plum. Humor is so hard to write, and she is one of the first characters that made me laugh out loud while reading. I loved knowing I could pick up a book and walk away with a smile!
Currently working on:
I’m currently working on my second suspense novel in a similar vein as Pretty Guilty Women.
Words to live by:
My husband tells me this often: Do more of what makes you happy!
Advice to new and aspiring authors:
Read a lot, write a lot, and believe in yourself!
Testimonials:
“From the moment I started reading Pretty Guilty Women, I was completely immersed in the gripping, twisty, diffuser-filled world of a posh spa wedding, where four college friends reunite, each with old baggage and new. Sparkling with insight, wine, humor, and a drop of blood, the women in this book leapt off the page and straight into my heart. Pretty Guilty Women is a must read!”
-Susan Crawford, Bestselling author of The Pocket Wife and The Other Widow
