Life of Cyn:
“This is a story that fires on all cylinders. The story really gets at the messiness of life—our pasts, addiction, trauma, relationships, finances, living situations. And the author has definitely taken the advice of some great writers who have said to put your main characters through as much hardship as possible. The hardship (and the expert plotting of the story) makes for a compelling novel. I liked that it very much mirrored actual figures in the Me Too movement, but also wove in a deeply personal story that included the fallout the victims are left to deal with.aster of the suspense thriller genre.”

Life of Cyn:
"This book isn’t at all what I expected. It was so much more. This was an incredible journey, and no amount of words will do this book justice. All I can say is read it."
Goodreads reviewer
The Last Cruz:
“Intense!!! This book resonates on so many levels. The sibling relationship, the career ups-and-downs for both sisters, life's disappointments, family responsibilities, and friendships. Throw in the action and adventure riding motorcycles and facing border crossings, Mexican prisons, and drug cartels and the story has it all!! I was up half the night as I couldn't put it down until I knew the ending!”

Lightning in my Wires:
“Avery is a woman who blossoms from a messed up young girl who self-harms and has no confidence and a disastrous love life to a woman that finally finds out what she is all about and begins to enjoy her life. I won't talk about the ending and spoil it for anyone who wants to buy this book but suffice to say I punched my fist in the air! This is an emotional, meaningful, and interesting roller coater of a ride that keeps you turning the page. I can highly recommend reading."

Lightning in my Wires:
“I came across this book when I was looking for a great summer beach read...and as soon as I got into it (within just a few pages) I could. not. put. it. down!!! The story is uplifting and empowering, and really tells the tale of struggle and triumph that so many women go through seemingly alone. The author gives a clear voice to these issues, while adding humor and poignancy that make for a truly satisfying read."
