So happy to have you here! My latest news: Ruff Around the Edges, the sixth book in the Dogfather series, is now available! I couldn't be more thrilled to bring you back to Bitter Bark to fall in love with another Kilcannon...and an unforgettable pupper.  Aidan Kilcannon and Rebecca Spencer want the same thing -- to keep and love Ruff, the dog that was somehow left to both of them. There's romance in the air, Kilcannons everywhere, and a dog that will steal your heart. Oh, and pizza. Lots and lots of pizza.

As I do with every book in the series, a portion of the first month's sales will be donated to Alaqua Animal Refuge, where every cover in the series was shot (with rescue dogs on every cover and local dog lovers as models). So far, we've donated nearly $5,000 and expect that to go to $6,000 shortly. All because of my wonderful, supportive readers. So grab a copy and save an animal in need!

And here's some FUN news! The readers at the extremely popular web site BookBub recently voted the "Top Twenty Most Romantic Books EVER." And guess what made the list?! Barefoot at Sunset, the first book in my Barefoot Bay Timeless series! What an honor to be included with Pride & Prejudice, Outlander, Fault in our Stars and many other beloved romances. I'm so grateful the readers reached "beyond household names" on this list! And some icing on the happy cake? New Leash on Life, book two in the Dogfather Series, has been nominated for a RITA (tm) Award for Best Mid-Length Contemporary Novel of the year -- the highest honor a romance writer can receive!

Thanks for visiting! Be sure to check out all the book lists, the "behind the scenes" look at the latest Dogfather photo shoot, and the Kindle Worlds page if you’d like to read more than fifty novellas set in my tropical paradise of Barefoot Bay, all written by different authors! There are TEN new Barefoot Bay Kindle Worlds novels coming out in April! Kick off your shoes and fall in love!
