A beautiful exploration of self, relationships, family, and place. Memorial was a raw, honest look at the lives of Benson and Mike, two men who struggle to communicate their feelings. Neither man is happy, but neither seem to be capable of having that honest conversation with each other. I found myself completely drawn to the …
When it comes to all things music and Nashville, I’m obviously biased. I accept and embrace this. I’m also super judgmental about how my city is portrayed in books. Home is Where You Are captured the Nashville vibe perfectly. The love for Berry Hill (if you know, you know), and The Loving Pie Company, who …
It took me two months, but I finished A Promised Land yesterday. The audiobook was phenomenal. Hearing his voice and eloquence was like the warm hug I didn’t know I needed. The book is heavy on policy, which I love. My undergrad minor was in political science and I almost went for a masters in …
Holy mackerel, y’all. It’s been a freaking year. What’s that? It’s only January 15? Yes, I’m aware, but I swear each day since January first has been a month long. We started the year with my son in virtual school, which is super fun with kindergartners (as I am sure many of you know) and …
Do you set yearly goals? What’s your big, hairy, scary goal for 2021? Aside from getting back to focusing on my health, I’m also putting a big emphasis on my creative health. Mine? I’ve got one book set for release in June (SURPRISE 🎉) and am planning to possibly dip my toes back into the …

In addition to the 12 Days of Indie Giveaway on Instagram, I am so excited to announce a new Book Club initiative! Indie Authors are the hidden gems of Bookstagram. There are so many amazing books by incredibly talented writers and storytellers. Unfortunately, they often get lost in the sea of Trade publishing releases. The …
When you were a kid on vacation, did you ever beg your parents to stop the car at a state line so you could stand with one leg in each state? It never really felt any different, but you still somehow felt as though you were straddling two worlds and suspending reality for a brief …
Have you heard the news?! After Everything is now available as an audiobook!! It’s currently available through Audible, but I’m told it should make its way down to iTunes and Amazon within the next few days. I’ve always wanted to do an audiobook for my books, but as an indie author the cost of entry …
I did it! I finished the whole series, and I LOVED it. I’m going to attempt to review these without spoilers. I adored the Quinn family. I first met Margaret in the final book of the Paradise series and was immediately drawn to her. I’d already had the Winter Street books on my shelf (I …
