I’m thrilled to announce that I re-released THE UNION STREET BAKERY, SWEET EXPECTATIONS, AT THE CORNER OF KING STREET and THE VIEW FROM PRINCE STREET.  Each novel can now be found in the Amazon Kindle store for $3.99 each.  In these four full length novels you’ll meet Daisy, Addie, Rae, and Lisa who are all from families tied together for centuries in historic Alexandria, Virginia.

As a hospice nurse, Zara Mitchell has already seen more death than most people will experience in a lifetime. So when her older sister asks her to help care for their ailing grandmother, Zara agrees—despite strained family relationships.

Though pale and tired, Nonna has lost none of her sharp mind. She’s fixated on finding something long forgotten, and she immediately puts Zara to work cleaning out the attic. Unexpectedly, amid the tedium of sifting through knickknacks and heirlooms, Zara also reconnects with a man she’s attracted to but whose complicated past makes romance seem impossible.

But then Zara finds what Nonna was looking for: a wooden chest, an emerald broach, a leather-bound journal. As she immerses herself in stories of heroism and loss set against the backdrop of war-torn Italy in 1943, Zara finds answers to questions she didn’t know she had. And they change everything she thinks she knows about love, regret, and seizing the day.

The lives of two women, generations apart, converge in this novel of love, mystery, and memories.

Join me on a journey to the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia, an iconic part of America that is one of my favorite places.  I’m always ready to experience these stunning vistas even if I simply travel there by sitting down at my computer and imagining the stories of the people who might have called the region home.

Get acquainted with the folks who live in the small town of Forest Hills, Virginia including wedding photographer Libby McKenzie, who is navigating the death of her father, several miscarriages and divorce.  Journey with Libby as buried secrets emerge, and she discovers how her life is intertwined with a young girl who lived in the town during the 1930s and the woman who now owns the historic estate called Woodmont.
