We search the world for a romance worth believing in. One that holds promise of something better. Sadly, many come up short, only finding a love that is self seeking. My hope in writing romance is that readers will close the book and know that they have seen romance the way it was meant to be. A romance with promise.

Something new is coming!

Now, if you want regular updates on what is happening with the Independence Islands Series, be sure to sign up to receive my newsletter. I will not post every-week, I will post when something exciting is coming or I have something private to share with you.

Elizabeth “Beth” Stevens wanted nothing more than to break free from her overbearing mother’s expectations and manage her own food truck that would feature a verity of cuisines. With the sudden passing of her beloved Gran, Beth’s dreams for the future are set into motion as the wealthy woman bestows her estate holdings on Beth. Under strict instructions, she carries out her Gran’s wishes and leaves the restrictive embrace of her family to embrace the life she dreamed of on the Independence Islands. 

As she works to establish her food truck business, she encounters several interesting characters that both challenge and encourage her faith in God and in love. It will take an abundance of bravery to push ahead to discover how Scrumptious Independence can be.
