About Me

 Mandatory Stats: Bachelor's degree in Communications, loves to read and write (4 books and counting), wife, mother, experience in journalism and freelance writing, bla bla bla. 

Now for the FUN stuff: 

 In high school, I won first place at the state science fair by drugging spiders (all legal). 

 I have a three-octave range and sang in Notre Dame while touring Europe with the Utah Ambassadors of Music.  

 As a kid I was nicknamed "the absent-minded professor" because, despite doing well in school, I always misplaced things, lost track of time, and had a messy desk.

Lilacs For Lucy

Victorian Romance Novella

Clean and Wholesome

Lucy Hargrave spent years being rejected by medical schools, her dream of becoming a doctor denied at every turn. Returning home in 1856 as a trained midwife, she expects a place where her skill will finally be valued—and a chance to leave the past behind.

But William Ashford, a newly minted doctor and the childhood friend who once laughed at her ambition, has returned too.

When Farmer Jones’ pregnant daughter falls ill, treatment becomes a competition. The whole town watches to see who will handle the case best.

For Lucy, it’s a chance to prove her skill and secure her place. For William, it’s an opportunity to make amends—and perhaps win back the woman he never stopped thinking of.

Old wounds, anonymous letters, and one perilous birth force them to choose: will rivalry keep them apart, or can forgiveness take root—like lilacs after a hard winter?

A no-spice Victorian rivals-to-lovers novella of pride, trust, and second chances.
