Come on in and make yourself at home. I’m glad you’re here.


I don’t know about you, but I find the pace of life hectic. A few minutes of quiet with my Bible in front of me and in prayer keeps me centered, starts my day off right. Then I sit at my computer and travel into America’s past, spinning stories for Steeple Hill that I hope will touch the hearts of my readers. I believe in love stories that grab people from the first page and carry them along the sometimes rocky journey of maintaining faith in trying circumstances.


A huge thanks to my readers for your lovely e-mails. I'm delighted you enjoyed reading my books as much as I enjoyed writing them.

Enjoy your visit!
God bless you.

An Unexpected Match

A widow with three boys to raise, Mary Graves has no time for peddlers of phony medicine. She's a dedicated healer working alongside her doctor father. When a handsome stranger blows into town with his "elixir of health" and asks questions about her newly adopted son, Mary's determined to uncover the truth behind his claims.

Once the reckless heir to a Boston fortune, Dr. Luke Jacobs travels the country with his herbal medicine while searching for his long-lost son. After meeting the feisty doctor's daughter and her youngest boy, Luke has found what he's been looking for at last. But can he convince her to let him into her home, her family--and her heart?
