Breast Cancer Awareness Month!


FAMILY SECRETS 'Secrets and Second Chances' Book 1 just hits beneath the surface of breast cancer. I wrote this novel dedicated to my dear friend, Ellen Meade, who was like a second mom to me. She sat down and told me about what she went through with her breast cancer. Ellen was able to beat breast cancer, but sadly enough she died many years later from Pancreatic cancer.

FAMILY SECRETS will take you into the characters life of Alexis and Colton Finley. A story of love and forgiveness. Learning how to mend old wounds and make new memories and find new friends.  Tissues may be needed.


About FAMILY SECRETS
Alexis has had big dreams her whole life, and she's worked hard to make them happen! After college, she married and had a beautiful baby boy, living her dream as "mommy" until Colton was safely entrenched in grade school. She lands her dream job at NASA, and her supportive husband, Jay, takes the lead on raising their son. The perfect family, right?
Twelve years later with no warning and no reason, Jay commits suicide. Colton goes into denial and blames his mother; Alexis buries herself in her work.
Seven months later, Alexis’s biggest dream comes true. She’s going to be on the next space shuttle! Her victory is short-lived when she finds out she has breast cancer. As her health declines, Colton delves into the dangerous circumstances of his father’s death.

“Family Secrets” crept into Alexis’s life when she wasn’t paying attention. Will she and her son ever find out the truth? Or is it too late?

STEPHEN KING AND OWEN KING

I'm excited to be on the road this afternoon. I will be driving to Milwaukee, Wisconsin to see Stephen King and Owen King this evening @ 8pm. I'm not shocked to hear that all tickets are sold out for this event held at Riverside Theater. I was lucky to buy mine the day they came out. YAY! Stephen King was the one who indulged me into reading when I was in my early teens and I said to myself that one day I will write books. Here I am all these years later with seven children's books, five novels, and two novellas published. If I'm lucky enough to snap some pictures of them I will post them on my site. I pray that I'm one of the lucky 400 people that get a signed copy of the book tonight.

... Hidden Secrets will leave you questioning everything you thought you knew...

Carla Michaels’s life isn't what she thought it was. She met her loving husband in college. She had a career as a teacher. All she ever wanted to complete her life was a baby. After five miscarriages, Carla had almost given up hope of ever becoming a mother.
Then a devastating tragedy strikes and everything she had ever loved is gone—now she’s left torn and shattered, wondering if she can go on with life.
Unexpectedly, she receives an envelope full of books. Journals that were kept hidden from her. A mystery starts to play out as secrets are revealed.
Will she get a second chance at life? Will the hidden secrets destroy her?  Or will she find the strength to survive once she knows the truth?

 “Hidden Secrets” will pull at your heartstrings until the very last page. Some secrets are not meant to be hidden…


   

Craven Falls, Ohio, is a small town with twenty-eight hundred residents—a town where everyone knows almost everyone else and where nothing ever happens, until one day two children disappear.

Ashley Teodora spends her days juggling work, school, and her five-year-old daughter, Lily. She receives a phone call from her best friend, Carla Michaels, needing her to go to Illinois to help Carla who is going through a tough time in her life. When Ashley returns home, she receives horrifying news that turns her world upside down; her precious Lily has been abducted!

Reece Garran is released from prison after a five-year sentence. His primary goal is to find the woman whose memory kept him alive all those years while behind bars. This woman had captured his heart and wouldn’t let go. When the transport bus pulls into the town of Craven Falls, Reece thinks it’s just another small ordinary town until he finds a reason to stay.

Catherine Teodora, Ashley’s mother, loves crocheting, baking, gardening, and spending time with her granddaughter, Lily. On a beautiful sunny Sunday afternoon, Catherine’s world is torn to pieces. All she did was look away for a split-second, and Lily was gone!

A family pulls together in a time of need, but what happens when those that are close to you are hiding behind twisted secrets? Will they stand by one another and find Lily? Or will the secrets tear this family apart?
