Three Books I Highly Recommend
Let’s start the New Year with three of my all-time favorite books. And they’re mine! I don’t self-promote too much, but I couldn’t resist celebrating myself. Here are each of my books, with reviews from readers! Enjoy!
All is Safely Gathered In We are in that time between the balmy days of summer and the beginning of the winter storms. This abundant, purposeful time of year promises us pumpkins and corn stalks, Indian summer, hills of fire-tipped colors and a holiday of thankfulness.

Two years ago I published my first book in the Charli series, The Golden Age of Charli-RSVP. I’ve been bragging about my books to celebrate the second anniversary. What a wonderful convergence of circumstances it was to receive a sterling review from Caroline Vincent on her bookish website, BITS…..
