I write romance and sci-fi adventure novels, exploring the humor, passion, and unexpected bonds that form when worlds collide. My work blends thrilling conflict with warmth, connection, and characters worth rooting for.
Based in Northern California, I enjoy spending time with my growing family along the West Coast. When I'm not writing, I can be found exploring new ideas, enjoying the outdoors, or imagining the next big adventure waiting just around the corner.
Cassie Harper has one rule: never date the opposition.
When the ambitious San Francisco Chronicle journalist meets Luke Holt, the attraction is immediate. He's a veteran, a small business owner who can fix anything with a circuit board, and the first person in years to make her feel seen. For the first time, Cassie lets her guard down.
Then she discovers his voting record — and her world shifts on its axis.
Suddenly, their private romance becomes a public battlefield. Her progressive inner circle questions her integrity. His conservative family doubts her heart. And when a powerful media figure targets her career, Cassie is forced to choose between the life she's built and the man she's grown to love.
Loving Luke means risking everything — her credibility, her career, and her community. But walking away means losing the only person who truly understands the woman behind the headlines.
In a country divided by red and blue, can love survive the grey areas?
Everyone picks a side. But what makes one side right and the other wrong? Your perspective. Your experiences. The information you trust. The truth is, most of life exists in the gray—and maybe that's exactly where love lives too.
