Three cats, two kids, and a passion for cozy mysteries. I live in Southern California and have been an avid mystery fan since I first picked up a Nancy Drew book at age eight. Later, evenings spent with Hercule Poirot and his associate, Captain Hastings evolved into a lifelong passion for murders most foul.

Bringing cozies into the modern world of cellphones, social media, and globalization while retaining the classic relaxing, warm and friendly atmosphere with memorable characters is my goal. It’s a pleasurable puzzle to keep my readers from asking “Why didn’t they use their cell phone? Where’s the CCTV footage? Are these people too stupid to live???”

Stick around and find out! Each of my books contain delicious recipes, straight from my characters. You may even be inspired to create a few delectable treats of your own along the way.

My books are written with my whole heart and soul. Thanks for coming along on the ride with me.
