Let’s face it, I’m not very good at this blogging stuff, but I am trying! Summer came through like a whirlwind. So what have I been up to lately? Let’s see… wrapping up our school year, swim team, hanging with a bunch of crazy teens, the beach, the river, and gearing up for cheerleading and football season. Oh, and WRITING!!!

One True Mate, book 1 in my new paranormal romance series released June 6th.  Then DISCONTENT, a Compounders Novella, that is an absolute must read for all Compounders fans, released July 6th. Also had a book signing in July that went well.

Right now I have no other signings on the calendar until April 2018 at RAI. That could change and I’m busy looking into additional opportunities for 2018. My mother-in-law has been battling lung cancer. Her outcome looked very bleak at the start of the year when first diagnosed. They didn’t believe she’d survive the year, so I canceled or purposefully didn’t book anything the second half of this year to focus on my family. I’m thrilled to report that she is one tough old bird, doing great, and kicking cancer’s butt!!!  But prayers and positive thoughts are still always welcome. We believe in miracles and the power of prayer!

As for writing, book 2 in the Westin Pack Series, called Fighting Destiny, is complete and off to my new editor. The cover will be coming soon, so be on the lookout for a cover reveal! It’s on schedule for a September 26th release date! I’m also more than halfway through first draft of SEDITION, book 3 in the Compounders Series. Watch for upcoming news regarding both books!
