When the Time is Right Tour and Giveaway



A bond so strong that the gate to the Rainbow Bridge can't hold it back. 

As veterinarian Michelle Catalano helps other people's ailing animals earn their angel wings, she tries not to think about the empty cat perch in her own home. Or the empty side of her bed, grown cold since her boyfriend left town. 

Then a pet psychic's uncannily accurate reading leaves Michelle with more questions than the answers she thought were set in stone. And warnings so dark, she wishes she still had her cat at her side to cuddle the fear away. 

When a brutal murder devastates Michelle and her family, the detective working the case is her only anchor. And soon, she's turning to Bruce for the comfort that could heal her broken heart. 

But there are too many unanswered questions about the killer, causing Michelle to secretly investigate on her own. Will Michelle's search for answers spell her doom, or deliver help from above? 

Grab a copy of this women's fiction murder mystery filled with heartbreak and hope. Perfect for fans of A Street Cat Named Bob, The Art of Racing in the Rain, and animal lovers who have experienced the powerful connection between themselves and their furry friends.

MY REVIEW

Michelle was still mourning the loss of her cat Blackjack when her pregnant twin sister Paige is murdered. Michelle had been warned by a psychic that something would happen. She just thought the psychic was a fake, but now that she was proven authentic, Michelle watches for her Blackjack to return. Will his spirit be able to help her during her greatest need?

I wasn’t sure how this story was going to play out, so it had me suspicious of everyone’s intent. Gladly though, it ended exactly the way I had hoped it would. I felt each character’s emotions deeply. This was an eye-opening story that makes you truly grateful for the people in your life.

His Secret Life Tour and Giveaway


Gay men don’t fall in love with women. Do they?


Philip is a gay man working for a conservative corporation. After his recent promotion, he needs a date for a company function and asks his sister’s new roommate, Emily.

Emily is an actress, waiting tables while starring in local plays and hoping for her big break. She agrees to be Philip’s date for the party, and soon they are attending one event after another together.

Philip and Emily click on many levels. Lines blur as the people they pretend to be start feeling like the people they are, causing a rift with Philip’s boyfriend Jason.

When Philip no longer works for the company, he doesn’t need Emily to play the role of his girlfriend anymore, but to his surprise, he can’t let her go.

Amazon Kindle    Amazon Paperback

"A powerful story that reveals the complexity of the human heart." ~ NYT Bestselling author Russell Blake 

 "His Secret Life proves love defies labels. It can transcend age, race, and gender." ~ Amazon Bestselling author Deborah Brown 

 "An unconventional romance. Our book club enjoyed discussing their complicated relationship." ~ reader J. Nelson

MY REVIEW OF His Secret Life

While working for a prestigious investment firm, Philip kept his homosexuality a secret. But each time the firm had a social function, he had to bring a “pretend” girlfriend. His sister tries to help out by suggesting Emily, her new actress roommate. When Philip and Emily meet, they click on all levels. As Emily falls in love with Philip, he suppresses his physical attraction to her. But what if she is his true soulmate? Philip must choose the right path to his future, but will the other path forever haunt him?


The plot was intriguing. I liked Philip and Emily right from the start. It seemed they were destined to be together no matter what. Workplace prejudice is a real thing, especially in cut-throat, higher positions, making this a believable premise. I felt the story was well-written, and enjoyed being able to view the turmoil from both sides of the table. I can’t wait to see what happens in the next chapter for Philip and Emily.

Eighty And Out Tour and Giveaway







Traumatized by visits to the nursing home to see their elderly aunt, Louise and her sister Jeannie made a youthful pact to not live past age eighty. Was it a silly childhood idea, or were they wise beyond their years? Most importantly, will they go through with it when the time comes?


Eighty and Out Editorial Review: “An emotionally-charged women’s fiction novel about the bond between sisters, friendship, and fate, Eighty and Out will have you deliberating your destiny.” ~ Bestselling author Deborah Brown


Available to buy from....

***MY HONEST REVIEW OF Eighty and Out***

 When Louise and her sister Jeannie were young, they made a pact to not live past 80. As they got older, life happened. They each got married. Jeannie had a daughter. Louise’s best friend Bernice moved away and got married. Now that Louise is older and wiser, she wonders if the pact was silly, or if she should give it more thought.

I guarantee this story will tug at your heartstrings. I only wish that I had the type of bond with my sister that Louise and Jeannie had growing up. Life happens to us all and we wish we could turn back the years. Even so, memories are what makes us who we are. This poignant story will have you thinking about it long after reading it.
