Summary of
A LOVELY CONDITION
Anna Robinson falls in love with Max Anderson when she's six years old. It's a condition that will last the rest of her life.
A Romantic Drama
Anna Robinson and Max Anderson grow up as next-door-neighbors and constant childhood companions. They remain friends throughout high school, until a kiss behind the school gym fast-tracks their friendship into full-blown romantic love. The future looks rosy, until Max makes a mistake that wrenches them apart and compels them to leave Tenacity.
Six years later, Anna vows to end her obsession with the handsome young neighbor who broke her teenaged heart. Facing her demons, she returns to her hometown, to renovate the house she grew up in and write her next novel. When she discovers that Max, once again, lives in the house next door, Anna fears she won’t keep that vow. For Max, the man, is even sexier and more amazing than the boy she fell in love with.
Max wants Anna back in his life, but can he get her to trust him again? While he strives to gain her forgiveness, danger lurks around the corner. Someone is intent on preventing his happiness, and the people Max cares about are in trouble. He’s desperate to find a way to protect them. It’s a lot for one man to contend with, but lives depend on his success.
A Lovely Condition
a Tenacity romance
Book One of the Tenacity series
I began reading romance novels, mainly, because I like happy endings. When I discovered the vastness of the genre, I narrowed my preference to romances without excessive profanity or explicit descriptions. Don't get me wrong; a romance novel deserves a good sex scene or two, but I prefer to see them described respectfully.
And I want my leading characters to be honorable. They'll have flaws, of course, and they'll make mistakes, but my favorite heroes strive to make their corner of the world a better place.

The Proper Choice
Book 2 of the Tenacity Series
A Romantic Drama
Samantha Lindsey never questioned that she’d fall in love, get married, and fill her beloved farmhouse with children. But two years after an attack by someone she trusted, she still avoids a man’s touch. While trying to bury her dreams and resign herself to a life alone, Samantha finds her off-the-chart attraction to her friend, Conner, confusing. How can she fear intimacy and still yearn for the handsome attorney?
Conner Wilmington grew up in a wealthy society family in Savannah, Georgia. His parents expect him to join his father’s firm and marry a debutant from their social circle. But Conner has other ideas. He has his eye on Samantha, a farm girl from Tenacity, Mississippi, who believes she’s incapable of a romantic relationship. He’s about to prove her wrong when her attacker reappears.
Can the kind attorney with movie-star good looks make Samantha’s dreams come true? If he can’t, she’s destined to a life alone. If her attacker gets his hands on her, she might have no life at all.

About Me
in case you're curious
I was born in Mississippi, raised in Mississippi, and married while attending a university in Mississippi. After graduation, my husband began his Army career and whisked me away to see the world.
Life as a military spouse demanded an array of adjustments. Our family changed homes twenty-four times, lived in ten different states, and spent eleven years outside the USA.
During those busy years, I raised two wonderful daughters, earned a master's degree in Early Childhood Education, and taught either kindergarten or first grade in Georgia, Germany, and Saudi Arabia.
Guests always use the word 'interesting' to describe our home. Filled with military memorabilia and treasures from places we've lived and visited, it reflects our previously nomadic way of life.
Now retired, my husband and I live in our home state, and I finally have time to read and write to my heart's content. As a Mississippian, who has seen much of the world and returned home, I sincerely appreciate the charm of the deep south and the idiosyncrasies of its people. The setting of my novel, and the characters who live and love there, epitomize that appreciation. I hope you'll enjoy visiting my friends, in the unmistakably southern town of Tenacity, Mississippi.

But please don't burst my bubble and tell me how the South isn't like the sweet community in my book. Tenacity, as seen through my rose-colored glasses, is a combination of the world I grew up in, my observations, and my imagination. I hope you'll sit back, relax, and enjoy your time in my little creation.
