About me
I started my indie author journey in 2021 when I published 2 books, the first in series of 5 books. I knew nothing of publishing or marketing. I naïvely assumed people would read them, love them, review them, and clamor for more.
Alas, that’s not what happened! No one bought them, and I gave up…
Since then, I’ve taken a few classes, joined some author groups, and received guidance from my friends at Beaches and Trails Publishing.
Those books were re-edited and got makeovers. I’ll be releasing one per week starting November 4, 2024.
I’ve got 3 series, all Short Thrillers, though some series have longer books than others. I’ve polled readers to see if they wated a new series with new charcters, but, so far, everyone wants more books in the current series.
Retired Assassins’ Club
A Gripping Thriller Series of High-Stakes Suspense and Unfinished Business
Retirement was supposed to bring peace, but for these elite ex-operatives, the past is far from over. The Retired Assassins' Club follows five unique killers who left behind their violent lives for quiet pursuits—until a powerful syndicate pulls them back into the shadows. Bound by deadly secrets and old rivalries, each book dives into the lives of former assassins who must confront long-buried enemies, unlock conspiracies, and protect those they care about from a sinister force hunting them all.
Meet The Scholar, The Widow, The Locksmith, The Ghost, and The Conductor—a cast of sharp-witted, multi-talented operatives whose "quiet lives" are a thrilling understatement. From high school classrooms to Amazon jungles, vineyards, and jazz clubs, each assassin’s journey is a pulse-pounding blend of action, danger, and intrigue. As these unlikely allies uncover the truth behind the syndicate’s motives, they realize that retirement isn’t an escape—it’s only the beginning.
Perfect for fans of character-driven thrillers and high-stakes suspense with twists at every turn, this series explores survival, loyalty, and redemption as old lives collide with new threats.
Agents of Deception
The Agents of Deception series delivers heart-pounding action, relentless twists, and an electrifying romance, all set in the shadowy world of espionage. Jack and Irina—two seasoned operatives—must navigate a web of deadly conspiracies, shifting alliances, and dangerous secrets that test their loyalty, their morality, and their growing feelings for each other.
Perfect for fans of The Night Agent and Mission: Impossible.
City of Lies
Dive into the gritty streets of San Francisco in the City of Lies series, where former cop Tory Wayne walks a razor-thin line between justice and survival. Pursued by both law enforcement and ruthless mafia enforcers, Tory’s world becomes a shadowy battleground as she uncovers the dark web of criminal empires and hidden agendas. In a city ruled by deception and power plays, her uneasy alliance with the dangerous Antonio Alvarez pulls her deeper into the underworld. But as each revelation twists the truth further, Tory faces brutal choices, deadly enemies, and moral compromises. Her only option? Survive long enough to dismantle the syndicate that’s tearing her city apart.
See you next Tuesday!
