Hello, dear readers and fellow lovers of historical fiction! It is a new month and time for an update from the writing desk. There is quite a bit to share, so settle in with your favorite cup of tea or coffee and let's catch up.
A New Story Is Coming: Rain Ignited
I am thrilled to announce that I am writing a brand new historical thriller for the First Coast Romance Writers spring anthology. The story is called Rain Ignited, and it is unlike anything I have written before. This one leans into passion, betrayal, strength, trust, and transformation. It is sensual, it is layered, and it has been a wonderful creative challenge.
The beautiful cover is being created by the incredibly talented Lia Davis of Glowing Moon Designs, who also brought Pinevale Intrigue to life visually. I cannot wait to see what she creates for this one.
Here are the key dates to put on your calendar:
- Pre-Order opens: May 5, 2026
- Publication date: May 19, 2026
More details on the anthology and where to order will be coming as we get closer. Keep an eye on this blog and on my social media!
