    I''m a wife first and foremost. I'm lucky enough to be married to my happy-ever-after prince and have been able to stay home and write. I'm a mother and a grandmother and I LOVE those two jobs! I'm a sucker for a great romance! My debut novel was published in 2014 and I've written a handful of works since then. Entering contests, writing short-stories for blogs and for myself I've been able to continue writing even while dealing with every day life. I'm ready to get back to the grind and publish all these novels rolling around in my head.
