ME
More than you wanted to know.

I help busy moms know what to make for dinner. I also write culinary mysteries. I want to give you an escape to small towns filled with quirky people. Who doesn't need an escape? You don't need to worry about unsavory content. The stories are clean and contain a sweet romance. Each book has around 20 recipes, and there’s a life hack tip in every chapter from fellow readers or characters from the book.

And the best part? With every purchase, 10% of the profits go to charity and monthly service projects. It's a win-win for everyone! Let's build a better community together.

I also write kids' fantasy and humourous mysteries.

I don't know about you, but my to-do lists are always way longer than I have time in a day to do. I always start by adding "write a to-do list" at the top of the page so I can cross something off immediately.

Besides overbooking my time, I love to try new things and go to new places. I am a wife, mother of four, writer, photographer, cook, baker, crafter, quilter... Lots of hobbies, but not an expert in any of them.

My superpower: people—even strangers—tell me their secrets. That's fabulous for the writer in me, not so much for the introvert. We probably won't agree on everything or even love all the same things, but isn't it great that we aren't all the same?
