To be honest, Christmas is my favorite time of the year and I just love the feelings of joy, love, and miracles that the season brings. I am someone who is a mood reader and love devouring Christmas books during the holiday season so I decided to write my own.
Second Chances in Winterberry is the second book in my Winterberry series and it follows Sally and Dominick who both live in the small town of Winterberry, VT. They dated in high school before Dominick broke her heart and when he moves back to town, he does whatever he can to get back on her good side. When he joins the Winter Festival committee to get closer to her, she begins to see a different side of him and her walls start to come down. What happens during the Christmas season is finding love, having a second chance, and learning what’s really important in life.
What are some of your favorite Christmas traditions?
Right after Thanksgiving, my husband gets the Christmas decorations down then goes to Chick Fil A for dinner while my daughter and I begin to decorate. Then when he gets home, we put on "Elf" and decorate the tree together. It’s my favorite tradition!
What’s next in writing for you?
I have one more book in the Winterberry series, another Christmas book, coming out in 2026 and then a standalone after that which I am very excited about!
What’s the best writing tip you’ve learned or been given you’d like to share?

What’s the best writing tip you’ve learned or been given you’d like to share?
One of the best tips I ever received was to write every day. Even if it’s only 10 words, sit down and write. Another piece of advice that I always go back to is to write what you love!
