Testimonials:

“I’m going to come right out and say this: this is the BEST written book I have ever read. The story is absolutely beautiful, and I love a good love story. Here is what drew me into the book even more: it is written as if you are right there with the characters. I felt every feeling along with the characters. This is how a book should be written.
Thank you so much for this wonderful book. I hope to read MANY more of your books ❤️?❤️.”

“Emma Barton has an autistic son. That’s where her energy goes instead of her other passion, writing. Enter Ethan Wise, who could be her ticket to another life full of success and love. Emma, who is already stretched thin, is pulled in new directions. Must her passions be mutually exclusive?

The Last Chapter is that rare book with no villains. The tension and conflict come from a sad and sometimes brutal reality. The author’s grasp of character and motivation is exceptional. You will root for these characters, and they will stick with you long after the book is finished. My highest recommendation.”
