I’m so excited to share that Tiny Island Summer will be released exclusively on Amazon.com on September 15th. The pre-order for the book is live now.

Tiny Island Summer started my path towards publication. With edits to the manuscripts, I ended up pushing it back in the order in my True North series to Book Two. But this is the book that started it all for me and is very close to my heart. Hope you enjoy reading it as much as I loved writing it!

Back cover blurb: Thanks to her job, Darcy Rogus has been relocated to the middle of nowhere. But with her determination to succeed and her best friend by her side, nothing is going to sidetrack Darcy achieving her career goals, especially not a handsome and brooding next-door neighbor.

Ben Hampton has put his life on hold to take care of his ailing mother, and he can’t let himself get distracted by anything, even if those distractions come with enticing hazel eyes.

Staying away from each other is easier said than done on an island of less than three hundred people.

I’m finishing up the first draft for my entry into this year’s So You Think You Can Write contest. The setting is a break from my beloved North Woods of Wisconsin. This time I’m heading south to the stunning Golden Isles of Southeast Coastal Georgia.

I’ve been lucky enough to spend a lot of time on St. Simons Island and Jekyll Island. The landscape is both tropical and familiar. The typical palm tress and luscious plants along the beaches and the sea contrast the spectacular maritime forests of oak and pine tress mingled in amidst marshes. It’s a special and unique place and I hope to do it justice!

Tidal Patterns

Elizabeth Shaw is Jekyll Island's preeminent, and only, event planner. She's 
sure she'll land the newly created role overseeing the entire island. Then 
everything will be perfect, she won’t be forced to leave, and she can get on with her life. 

Mark Edwards doesn't need any more stress. He's ready to slow down and enjoy 
his tiny beach town. His boss pushes him to apply for the new management 
position and he agrees. After a decade in catering, he’s sure he can do this job in 
his sleep. 

Neither of them counted on the other getting in the way.

Check out Tidal Patterns on Wattpad! I'm updating it with more chapters as I 
finish the edits.
