Inspire Your Heart with Art

It’s National Inspire Your Heart with Art Day! I know that you all regularly allow art to inspire you through the books you read. But I hope you also get inspiration from a beautiful photo, sculpture, or even a fantastical garden, like the one that inspired Monet at Giverny. Art inspires so many emotions. Joy. Tears. Laughter. Thoughtfulness. I am grateful for all the artists in my life who have brought me so much inspiration! P.S. OMG, I can’t believe that the last book in the Crooked Pass Security series, BURIED TRUTHS, is here in May, but don’t worry! The series spinoff, Crooked Pass Security K-9 Division, hits shelves with K-9 TRACKER in November 2026. I think you’ll love BURIED TRUTHS, which features a heroine with amnesia who may be the mastermind behind a multi-million dollar fraud. Or is she?

Exciting Cover Reveal

It’s always fun when you see the cover for a new release! I just received the cover for BURIED TRUTHS, my May 2026 release in the Crooked Pass Security series. It’s an action-packed story about a K-9 handler who discovers an injured woman during an early morning hike. Not only is she injured, she can’t remember who she is! Here is a little teaser for the book:

A man and his K-9
Will defend her from danger

When Sergeant Mark Dillon’s K-9 police dog, Rocky, alerts him to something off a mountain path, he doesn’t expect it to be a young woman. Luckily, “Amanda” is alive—but her memory is gone and she has no idea who has left her for dead. As the investigation grows, Mark suspects Amanda is a witness who knows too much. Since she only trusts him, this undeniable connection means Mark and Rocky will do whatever it takes to uncover her buried truths…and keep her alive.

Feliz dia de los Muertos

Feliz dia de los Muertos! The Day of the Dead is a holiday that’s traditionally celebrated throughout Mexico and by Mexicans in other countries. The holiday is a time to remember and honor friends and family members who are no longer with you. Families will build small altars with photos of their loved ones and decorate them with candles, marigolds, and offerings of things their loved ones liked, such as food or beverages. The day is also one to visit the graves and leave gifts for their deceased friends and family. P.S. If you love stories with spirits, you might like GHOST OF A CHANCE, a tale about a challenge to solve a murder that occurred on the Jersey Shore during Prohibition. Did I mention the ghost of the alleged murderer might be lingering around? Grab your copy at https://amzn.to/4nxAoYW.

What’s Your Favorite Coffee Shop?

I’m off to my monthly writing meeting with the Liberty States Fiction Writers. I’m actually presenting today, but before I do that, we’ll have our board meeting at our most popular coffee shop – Paris Baguette. It’s located just up the road from the library where we meet and I love it because of the delicious pastries and coffees I can get there. Do you have a favorite coffee shop, and why do you love it? P.S. The ladies of the At the Shore series often stop to have coffee or lunch together at a local place in Sea Kiss. If you love stories set in quaint beach towns, dive into ONE SUMMER NIGHT, the first book in the At the Shore series for only 99 cents. Grab your copy today at https://amzn.to/48TfcsK.

What summer food will you miss?

It’s the last summer weekend! On the Jersey Shore, local summer is here! That’s the time when the crowds are gone, but the temperatures are still warm enough for the beach. Even the water is at its best temperature-wise, although we’ve been plagued by deadly rip currents this year. But soon, all traces of summer will be gone, and with it, our favorite summer foods. Which summer food will you miss the most? For me, it’s the soft custard ice cream that I get at boardwalk stands like Kohr’s. P.S. If you want to keep summer a little longer, grab your copies of the At the Shore contemporary romance novels set on the Jersey Shore at https://amzn.to/3VYRmEh! The first two are specially priced at .99 or grab the box set of all three novels for only 5.99.
