Wife of one. Mom of three plus a Beagle. Well, at least that's how I'm described in the confines of my everyday life. ​Writing has always been second nature to me. I spent my childhood creating short stories and my collegiate years writing for the campus paper (Go TERPS!) Jump twenty years to the present—I'm still writing. At my day job I spend most of my time writing capability briefs, white papers, proposals—you name it. Then one day it hit me. It was time to access my own creative power and bring to life the characters lurking in my mind. I hope you enjoy my first book, Beautiful Nightmare. It has everything you'd look to find in a paranormal romance-urban fantasy-new age novel. Vampires. Wolves. Love. And so much more!
