I'm an Author of Some New Books

The Rose of the Lighthouse and Memoirs of a Rose of Sharon

I’ve been going down the path of writing to see what I like. I’ve taken a turn down the avenue of authorship and written a few books that I like to write about. People like to give me suggestions and tell me what stories I should tell. But when I think about my heart and my interests, I like to take a step back and think about my worth as an artist and care about what I want to share instead of the voice shouting at me in the crowd.

I enjoyed writing these books. For one reason or another, I’ve thought about writing memoirs, romance, or mystery. My voice as a memoirist is very personal and I don’t feel comfortable promoting it to the world. What I have gone through is very deep and even though it would make me relatable to other people, I fear reliving the story and finding myself talking about my hurt over other stories that can help distract from the pain. Memoirs of a Rose of Sharon include 30 life lessons I learned before turning 30 years old and my Healing Journey through the Seven Stages of grief. Both of which are available on Amazon and Kindle. They talk about life lessons I’ve learned up until 30 years old and how to deal with grief as I come to terms with the loss of my mom seeking closure that brings me the happiness she would have wanted me to have in life.

My romance novels, Rose of the Lighthouse Book 1 A Rained in Stranger, and Book 2 Rose’s Response are about Caleb and Rose who fall in love at the lighthouse in Hope Harbor Island. Caleb is a military veteran who has PTSD and anger due to fighting in war and witnessing his mom’s battle with cancer. He used to steal away in his father’s boat the FreeBird where he is washed up on shore one night during a storm that leads him to the Lighthouse where Henry and Rose take him in for the evening as he gets back on his feet to go back to his family.

Rose ultimately learns how to forgive bad friendships and look within herself to ignore the voices of others who tell her how to fall in love. She forgiveness a broken marriage she would have had and looks past the critics who gossip about her and Caleb’s new life together as they embark on their own journey to finally wed in Book 3 A Blissful escape, which I’m writing now and growing in their marriage in Book 4 a Friendship on Fire coming soon.

Theese Books are also available on Amazon Kindle and Smashwords, which you can purchase in bookstores anywhere here and here.

I look forward to finishing this novel series as part of the projects that I have been working on in the start of a new year. I hope that they are enjoyable to my readers.
