What Happens when Your Little Sister's Best Friend Becomes Yours?

What Happens When Your Little Sister’s Best Friend Becomes Yours?

As I’ve been working through the Madeline books, I realized that Madeline’s best friend is now her “best friend’s” brother.  And vice versa! This of course, made me wonder if Russell knows it yet. So, I decided to ask him about it… and a few other things. Let’s get right at it. Note: links Continue Reading

How Murder Ruined My Mystery

How Murder Ruined My Mystery

Leon Czolgosz is my new nemesis. He’s dead, but he ruined my book. No, really. The guy totally destroyed the opening pages of Such a Tease. Now, these days, not a whole lot of people remember the name of Leon Czolgosz. I didn’t. But I’ll never forget him now (although I may never remember how to Continue Reading

Five Fun Facts: Madeline

Meddlin’ Madeline: Five Fun Facts

With the launch of Meddlin' Madeline: Sweet on You only days away, I thought I'd share a few fun facts about the book and my writing process with it.  As you probably have read, the idea for Madeline came when I was searching for photos for another book idea (one I still haven't fleshed out yet!). I Continue Reading

Wy the Super Bowl is officially evil

Why the Super Bowl Is Officially Evil

My husband has this thing about soccer.  He says, "It's the 'sport of the beast'." Okay, under certain eschatological positions, he may have a point.  After all, it is a "one-world" sport, so to say.  Whereas, American "football" is pretty much ours.  I don't know if anyone else in the world does it Continue Reading

What's it about?
When protectors become targets, no one is safe.
Mark created The Agency to shield the innocent—but now an unknown foe fights to assume command. As shadowy threats tighten around Mark and his team, danger erupts on every front: terrorists at sea, betrayal within their ranks, and an enemy who always seems one step ahead.
While a Caribbean cruise turns deadly and secrets unravel in the agency’s halls, one shocking betrayal proves the enemy is closer than anyone imagined. Mark faces the fight of his life—not just for the future of his organization, but for the people he loves most. As faith and romance grow amid the fallout of shattered dreams, the stakes rise higher than ever.
The countdown to the series finale has begun… and survival is anything but guaranteed.

Sometimes, I fall in love with a character in my b Sometimes, I fall in love with a character in my books. Someone like Lewis in The Lights of New Cheltenham or Rory in Not a Word. But... in Twice Sold Tales, I fell in love with a cast of characters.  Harper the store owner, Noah the single-dad just learning how to be one, Bennie, the adorable ballet-loving little boy... and Mrs. Klair. Oh, how I loved Mrs. Klair.
I also love the town of Red Wing, Minnesota.  I infused as much of it as I could into the book--places to eat and explore, people I love dearly (family!), and the feel of a small town inside a modest city along Lake Pepin (of Laura Ingalls fame). I also learned that there is actually a lake monster there!  Pepi!  You wont want to miss him!
