My kiddos. They love life and love God without apology. They are who they are with nothing to hide. They work hard, play hard, and are quick to ask forgiveness when they mess up. They're also quick with a kind word and a hug. They make me want to be a better person.

A RACIALLY-MOTIVATED KILLER

Healing Promises (2008)
Facing a new threat.
When FBI Agent Clint Rollins takes a bullet during a standoff, it might just save his life. But not even the ugly things he's seen during his years working in the Crimes Against Children Unit could prepare him for the overwhelming powerlessness of hospital tests revealing an unexpected diagnosis. If only Sara weren't retreating into doctor mode...he needs his wife now more than ever.
Frozen in fear.
Sara Rollins is an oncologist with a mission--beating cancer when she can, easing her patients' suffering at the very least. Now the life of her tall Texan husband is at stake. She never let the odds steal her hope before, but now the question of God's healing promises is personal. Can she hold on to the truth she claimed to believe?
Faith under fire.
As Clint continues to track down a serial kidnapper despite his illness, former investigations haunt his nightmares, pushing him beyond solving the case into risking his life and career. Clint struggles to believe God is still the God of miracles. Especially when he needs not one, but two. Everything in his life is reduced to one all-important question: Can God be trusted?

Ransomed Dreams (2007)
Can Dreams Be Redeemed?
Gracie Ann Lang is being watched by a man who will stop at nothing to hide the truth from her. Having lost the only man she ever loved and the children who were her world, the truth is all Gracie wants - an explanation for what really happened.
She longs to move forward but is bound by chains of fear. Then she meets Steven Kessler, a Crimes Against Children FBI agent assigned to uncover an international plot to kidnap the British Ambassador's daughter. Steven awakens more than memories; he revives the possibility of a life Gracie desires. A life where healing and peace crowd out the nightmares.
But his case and her past are dangerously connected. Suddenly, Gracie must decide if she's able - let alone willing - to pay the required ransom to redeem dreams and restore hope.

God Answers Mom's Prayers (2005)
This was my first ever published work and one of my favorites as a contributing author with God Allows U-Turns books. My story For This Child is a look at how God's "no" turned into a huge blessing and a painful scar became a grateful reminder.

Who am I? What a sweeping question. Listing some of the hats I wear ~ wife, homeschool mom, writer, Bible study teacher, chocoholic ~ might give a little insight into who I am. But then again, that's only a small snapshot.
Going deeper, I'd have to say that I'm married to an awesome, incredibly good-looking, and God-honoring man. Together we homeschool three amazing daughters. Some of my favorite moments are the ones I spend laughing, reading, and being goofy with my family.
In my spare time, I love writing stories, teaching teenagers, scrapbooking, playing basketball, and taking walks with my family. The beach is my all-time favorite place to be. Chocolate is my favorite food. I collect teddy bears, tons of books, and dust on my furniture.
But getting to the heart of who I am can be summed up in a few short words. I'm a daughter of the King learning to live and love with laughter. My greatest passion in life is to know God and show others how He heals hearts and how to they can glorify God by enjoying Him forever.
That's why I write, teach, kiss my kiddos, watch sunsets, and keep trying again when I fail.
Please come by the Dark Chocolate Suspense website and learn more about my books, ways to keep kids safe, and my awesome heavenly Daddy.

There have been many times in my life where I've wondered if God was listening. And even when I knew that I knew He was, I still wondered if He'd answer.
I don't like those times of doubt and wrestling with God. I don't like knowing I should rest ...
