I'm an eclectic writer living close to Charleston, SC. I say eclectic because I write a little bit of everything, but there's always a romance in every book I write. Whether it's historical, fantasy, paranormal, or suspense, you will always get a happily ever after.
I'm a sci-fi/fantasy/paranormal geek that absolutely loves Star Trek and all types of fantasy and paranormal television and books.
I also love historical movies and series so it's no surprise I'm addicted to Downton Abbey. That addiction is only slightly less than my addiction to one of the series stars, Matthew Goode, who is one of my all-time favorite actors. I may or may not have based one or two of the heroes in my books on him.
I love bingeing TV series, reading, learning new things, coffee, traveling, creating videos, laughing with my friends, and talking on the phone to my sister about all of our favorite movies and television.
