Let’s Give ‘Em Pumpkin to Talk About
My debut novel is a contemporary romance pairing a grumpy textile artist with a sweet former tech guy who is now a squash farmer. It’s a neighbors-to-lovers story with open door sex scenes. To me, this book is about learning to love yourself and finding the best community for you, even if that means living in Indiana. I wrote this to highlight the best of what I’ve found living in Indiana.
This book was shortlisted for the 2026 Indiana Authors Awards among debut books!
Apple-y Ever After
Apple-y Ever After is a free online read through Harlquin’s website. You’ll have to make an account to read it, but it’s worth it! It’s an opposites-attract romance between a freewheeling jewelry maker and a by-the-books accountant who connect over their love of apple crisp. To me, this story is about embracing how differences can strengthen relationships. It’s also a love letter to New York, both the city and the parts of the state where the apples grow.
I Haunt It That Way
I’m calling this book my Adirondack Gothic romance. It’s about a woman buying her family’s dilapidated mountain camp and getting trapped there with her ex’s best friend while increasingly scary things happen. To me, this book is about learning to edit the stories we tell ourselves. It’s an homage to the classic Gothic romance with an unreliable heroine who must escape the house that’s trying to trap her.
