Author me in a nutshell…

I’m a Wall Street Journal, Washington Post, Amazon Charts, and #1 Kindle bestselling author of standalone and series-based emotionally charged domestic drama that my readers (who are the best, btw) have described as “unputdownable” and “intricately plotted.”

I’ve been penning tales since I could wield a #2 stick of lead. Summer afternoon soaps, nighttime thriller dramas, and the deliciously scandalous novels I kept hidden in my school backpack provided plenty of fuel for my wicked imagination in my youth. Nowadays, my stories are packed with mystery, suspense, and romance–sometimes a touch of magic–and my books have been translated into twenty-seven languages. (And I want to visit all the places my books have been!)

Right now, I’m living in Northern California with my husband and kids (when they’re not away at college) where I spend my mornings writing and afternoons herding our three cats, literally. Click here. My cats are probably in my Instagram feed.

I do love interacting with my readers and encourage you to join my Beach Club. You’ll get emails directly from me to your inbox. Write me back. I do respond.
