Love's Rescue (2009)
A Dividing Conflict
In 1863, the War Between the States is dividing more than a nation. To escape the conflict, Jessica Hale and her family flee their Kentucky home and head for Nevada Territory. Her brother, Ambrose, committed to the Confederates, rejoins the Kentucky militia and is disowned by his father. But the worst is yet to come.
A Heroic Kidnapper
When Unionists presume the family to be Confederate sympathizers, they set a devastating fire to their home. All alone and then "kidnapped" by cattleman Jake Bennett, Jessica is taken to a ranch deep in the Sierra Nevada wilderness. Can she overcome her resentment toward Jake
for failing to save her family?
The Depths of Love
When Jake launches a plan to help Jessica's brother escape from prison camp, she sees him for the honest, good-hearted Christian man that he is and now knows the depth of his love for her. Through the lingering smoke and smoldering ashes from her ruined home and murdered family, will Jessica see a future with Jake?

Welcome, friends!
I have lived in twenty-seven places in eight states (so far). I love horses, mountains, and great love stories, so I write Western romances.
If you love to see open wilderness before you, feel fresh wind in your hair, and lope horseback through the intoxicating scent of a pine forest, you've just found the portal to take you there. My novels will carry you back in time to the far reaches of the American West, place you into the saddle of a running horse, and slip you into the cool water of a purling river on a sweltering summer night. I write that you may experience it all firsthand, the stories unfolding around you, woven throughout with bold, unforgettable men and plenty of romance. I write that you may live the adventure!
Love's Rescue is the award-winning, best-selling book one of my new Sierra Chronicles Trilogy. In it, Jessica Hale, a headstrong Southern woman, falls for her kidnapper . . . a rancher she blames for the deaths of her family. (View the book trailer below!)
Hope's Promise, The Sierra Chronicles book two, will be available July 2010! Jake and Jessica Bennett learn there was more to her parents' deaths than they knew, and both the ranch and Jessica are in danger. Now they must quickly find the murderer . . . and discover for themselves how far they will go for love. (New book trailer coming soon!)
Love's Rescue came with a nifty contest: the winner, drawn February 14, 2010, won a one-week vacation for two to the Rocky Mountains of Colorado! Huge congratulations to Jeanette L. of Paris, Illinois! It turns out she won on her 35th wedding anniversary! Happy anniversary, Jeanette!
When I'm not writing? I judge a number of top writing contests and love my work as a manuscript editor, ghostwriter, and biographer. I am also Mom to two sons, one daughter, a rescued American Eskimo dog, fourteen parakeets, and an aquarium full of fish. The children I homeschool; the dog I taught to sit. She also barks at parked cars. In my spare time, you're likely to find me baking, gardening, behind a camera, or hugging a horse.
