Hey There!

This is the first post of what I plan to be a handful more about each port that my husband Christian and I had the pleasure of sailing to a few weeks ago during our Mediterranean cruise. It was our first cruise ever and a smashing hit!

Having backpacked Europe back in college, I actually had more European cities under my belt than my own European husband! I’d been itching for years to let him see for himself the splendor that Barcelona, Venice, Rome, and many more European cities have to offer. Pair that with wanting to whet the “what is the hubbub about cruising, anyway?” appetite, we decided that Norwegian Cruise Line’s Spirit, touring all around the Mediterranean in April, would be a grand idea.

Hey There!

I hope everyone’s having a delightful spring so far. I’m in the midst of planning an exciting vacation (first cruise ever!) and I’m hard at work on When Girlfriends Take Chances, Emily’s story.

As it often happens, the characters have taken on stories and minds of their ownand I’m really loving how it’s coming along. It’s so much fun when even the writer can get surprised by loops and twists and turns. I hope you will like the book, too, when I have it ready for you this summer! (more…)

It’s here!! The fourth book in the When Girlfriends… collection has arrived!

I had so much fun writing When Girlfriends Chase Dreams. Claire Linley is one of the girlfriends who has really stolen my heart over the series; and seeing how my day job is working in the wedding floral biz, the theme and storyline for Claire’s book just came so naturally.

Hey There!

The alarm clock is set to buzz a bit earlier than usual, the checklists are quite lengthy, the calendar is jam-packed. It’s a particularly busy time right now because so much is going on and some very exciting things are coming up!

I got some very helpful information from my editor over the weekend, as well as some really glowing things he had to say about the book, the characters, and the series as a whole. So right-on with that! (more…)
