One of my favorites… Julie was at a party with her sorority sisters and she was getting increasingly uncomfortable. It had always been a little challenging being one of the only girls who didn’t drink. They didn’t really hassle her and most respected her choice. The problem was that they had gone to another sorority …
Sunday surprise!
Here is a little treat for you. This is a never before published flashback 🙂 (The past) Tommy sat in the kitchen while he waited for Julie to get home from school. Jack was getting dressed and they were going to the studio for a family portrait. He straightened his tie and looked …
Another favorite scene
This is a scene from “Heaven’s Tiny Tears” When Julie was having some trouble with her kidneys. I love writing the scenes between Tommy, Jack and Bill when it has to do with Julie. Enjoy! ________________________________________________________________________________________ He had always known her to be a pillar of strength and tenacity. She was also full of compassion …

My thoughts…
After writing so many books about the same people, I have developed some attachment to particular scenes which showcase both the serious and sensitive nature of the characters. Some of the hardest moments I’ve written have been with the characters of Bill and Julie. I think it is the hardest at times because they have …
Thundering Silence
I hope you are all enjoying these “favorite scene” moments. I have really liked going back over the series and picking certain parts to explore with all of you. Thundering Silence was a new experience for me because it was the first time the issues which faced the characters came from within. Julie becoming ill …
Courage Lies Within
Publishing “Courage Lies Within” made me the most nervous of all the books in the series. I had always wanted to explore Brittany’s assault in much more detail than I had and the hypnosis sessions needed to be real and difficult to get through; not only for her, but for the reader as well. It wasn’t the …
Heaven’s Tiny Tears
It is amazing for me to go back and look at how Naomi came into the world and this series. My intention from the moment I realized Red would be pregnant, was to have her miscarry, or the baby would die shortly after birth. I really try to keep the issues my characters face as …
Darkness
In honor of the upcoming release, I wanted to continue the favorite scene postings for the books I haven’t done yet. This particular scene was a turning point in the series when we began to see the back story of Bill and some of what he endured growing up with his father. It also gives …
Favorite Scene…”The Unexpected”
Although the premise of “The Unexpected” is about Brittany’s attackers and finally placing some answers with all of the questions that have plagued her, I really wanted this installment to be one of healing for Brittany. She is a survivor, no doubt, and she has strength is buckets, but she has never allowed herself to …
