About Me

Thank you for visiting my site! I write heartwarming love stories set in small, tight-knit communities, featuring characters I’d want to be friends with in real life. I have two series: the Wind Chime Novels and the Seal Island Trilogy.

The Wind Chime Novels are set on a fictionalized island loosely based on Tilghman Island in Maryland. I grew up in a small town on the Chesapeake Bay, similar to the one where the stories take place. I feel so fortunate to be able to share the rich culture and traditions of this place through these stories.

The Seal Island Trilogy is set on a fictionalized island loosely based on Inishbofin in Ireland. I visited this island when I was studying abroad in Galway, and I fell in love with it at first sight. Every time I get to go back there in my imagination, I fall in love all over again.

I’ve always been drawn to island settings, both in reading and in writing. There’s something so soothing about being surrounded by all that water. The pace of life is slower. Neighbors look out for each other. Everyone knows everything about everyone. Places like this bring me comfort. I hope that when you read my stories, they bring you comfort, too.

I currently live in Annapolis, Maryland, where I’m trying to build a community similar to the ones that you read about in my books. If you ever find yourself in the area, feel free to send me a message through my contact page. I’d love to meet up!
