So Many Books! Where to Begin?

There's something about getting lost in a good book that never gets old. Reading has always been one of my favorite ways to relax. I don't need hours to enjoy it, either. Sometimes all it takes is a quiet ten-minute break during the day to recharge or a few pages before bed to settle my mind from thinking about everything tomorrow holds.

Even with a busy schedule, I usually manage to read about a book a week. For some people, that sounds like a lot. For those who finish three or four books every week, I'm just warming up!

What I love most about reading is how it carries me beyond my own life. Every story invites me into a different community, introduces me to people I'd never otherwise meet, and lets me experience life through someone else's eyes. While I usually gravitate toward contemporary fiction, this year's celebration of the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence has sparked my interest in stories set during America's founding years.

Most often, though, you'll find me reading sweet romance, women's fiction, cozy mysteries, and the occasional suspense novel. I don't venture into science fiction very often unless it features a compelling dual timeline or a touch of dystopian intrigue.

No matter the genre, I'm always searching for the same thing: memorable characters, a meaningful story, and people who are willing to grow, overcome obstacles, and embrace positive change. Those are the kinds of stories that stay with me long after I've turned the final page.

That's exactly why I'm excited to be part of this special multi-author book promotion. With 100 books to explore, there's truly something for every reader. You'll discover stories set in the Old and New West, peaceful mountain communities, relaxing beach retreats, charming small towns, and journeys of hope, healing, second chances, and renewed purpose. Along the way, you'll likely discover several new favorite authors.

I'm delighted that two of my sweet inspirational romance novels are included in this collection. In addition to writing romance, I also write books for children from preschool through middle grade. I hope you'll take a look at my two featured novels—and if you enjoy them, I'd love for you to explore my children's books as well.
