I love to tell a story, and mysteries are my favorite. Add in a dash of paranormal, a bit of romance and a pet or two and I'm ready write. My mysteries are set in Florida and offer a taste of the tropics.

I can often be found writing from our South Florida home, looking into the garden, watching the birds and squirrels fight over their next meal, while I write. Our two cats, Miss Marple, and Fletch, often join me at the desk and each has their assigned spot. I'm not sure they are there to supervise my writing or watch the birds.

Along with my husband of 41 years, we share a love of gardening, and together have written a gardening handbook for Florida gardeners. We are now empty-nesters, giving me plenty of time to dream up the next story.

I am honored to be a USA Today Bestselling Author.
