Discovering the story and learning about the characters as I write. I rarely plot and love weaving the elements together.
Tell us about your latest release:
The Cookie Match is a sweet friends-to-lovers/second chance book in the Maple Gardens Matchmaker series. Ava and Max were high-school sweethearts until life sent them in different directions. Now, Max is back with a large inheritance and massive chip on his shoulder. Ava is determined to help him overcome his issues with his elderly mother whether he likes it or not (not) while he is just as committed to give Ava the chance she never had to become a baker, a chance she is afraid to take. Between meddling matchmakers at Max’s mother’s retirement home and old feelings that won’t go away, their last chance at love is one cookie away from disaster.
What else are you working on at the moment?
I’m writing the final words of my third Temple River book for Storm Publishing. This is romantic women’s fiction, dual timeline, with big emotions and a beautiful setting.
