Book Cover & Preview Text
Mike was mixing them a drink, Judy had dressed in a cool lime green sundress, she had her head back and eyes closed fighting a headache of all headaches, when she heard a door open. She opened her eyes and saw a man about the same age as Mike walking across the room He was over six feet tall, thick black hair and full black mustache. He had the bluest eyes she had ever seen, or was it the dark tan and his dark hair that accented the blue eyes to make them more noticeable. Judy sat staring as he came further into the room. She raised her head off the back of the sofa and was about to stand up when she heard him swear under his breath . Mike came in, a drink in each hand, “Ben, Your back! Just in time to have a drink with Judy and I. Judy, This is Ben. Ben meet our new Architect.” Judy stood up to reach out her hand, before she could, he turned on his heels and headed for the liquor cabinet. He growled, “What the hell is Stew thinking of?” He stopped at the cabinet to pour himself a drink. Judy stood and stared at his back as he said to Mike, “Why didn’t you send her back on the same plane she came on?”

I have lived most of my life in California but traveled extensively. I have used my travel experience as well as my personal observation of the people around me as a base for the characters and settings in my book. I am an avid reader of a wide selection of subject matter. I enjoy a good romance, a mystery or a historical novel.
I have two children, one who lives on the East Coast one on the West Coast and I visit both regularly, usually driving between the two and enjoying sights on the way.
