Welcome!

Thank you for stopping by.

I write historical fiction about the development of the American West. Here’s a brief description of my series: 

Lead Me Home is a tale of a couple on a wagon train journey along the Oregon Trail in 1847. Now I’m Found follows this couple through the early years of the California Gold Rush. Forever Mine tells the story of another couple who meet and fall in love on the same 1847 wagon train. 

My Hope Secured, relates how two Oregon pioneers thrown together by necessity create a family together. Safe Thus Far, follows a young boy’s coming of age in Oregon during the Civil War. And my newest novel, When Heart Shall Fail, looks at a woman trying to find her way out of a horrible marriage and back to the man she once loved.

I hope you enjoy my novels.
