Synopsis: In the small town of Woodsville, Ruby Hood it settling into her role as Guardian of the Wood. In the blink of an eye, her monumental high school graduation comes and goes without her attendance. There are too many other things on her mind. Her mom, Christine Wood, has just returned from caring for Ruby's ill grandmother. Kent Wolf finally gets released from the hospital and Kayla Wolf is desperate to make amends, while Dylan Hunter works to hone his Huntsman skills.
 
Everything seems like it’s going to work itself out, until Ivy Snow shows up on Ruby’s front porch with an RV filled with seven dwarves. As a new darkness casts a shadow over Woodsville, Ruby is unsure where to turn when turmoil erupts in the Wood, and finds herself aligned with an unusual cast of characters. One she is certain is lying to her. As time progresses, she wrestles to uncover the truth and save innocents. And as Guardian of the Wood, Ruby worries that she can’t save everyone, but what if she is the one who needs saving?

Well, it's going to be a busy year, and one that I am grateful for.


I've signed a 6-book contract with Harlequin Heartsong Presents and am signing a novella for Barbour's "Eligible Bachelor" collection to release May 15.


The Nosy Neighbor Mystery series is selling well, and I am working on the third in that series. God had blessed me beyond measure in my writing this year, and for that, I Praise Him!

Congratulations to all!

In 2013, I published 21 books counting indie ebooks and traditionally published print books. That gave me a total of 34 publications since I started writing seriously in 2007. My goal was to quit the day job and become a full time writer. I met that goal in May of 2013 and published the 34 book on the last day of December. The book which squeaked in at the last minute was Mistaken Assassin.

Marilu wakes one morning to the realization that the man next to her is not her husband. That awareness is the beginning to ten year's of memories returning. One of which leads her to believe she is a paid assassin. As she struggles with the realization of who she is and what she was, she begins a search for her daughter. Things are complicated when she runs into Brad Morrison, the undercover agent who is the brother to the man Marilu had been hired to kill. Together, the two go on the run to prove that all is not as it seems and Marilu is nothing more than a Mistaken Assassin. Can she let go of her fear and uncertainty to let God's will prevail?
