Once
upon a time, in a small town in Oregon, a boy and girl fell in love.
It was not, as their parents insisted, “puppy love,” but the real
thing. Time passed and one day the boy took the girl to the coast,

girl, of course, said yes. And years later, I’m still so happy I did.
This is why my upcoming SHELTER BAY series -- launching July 6th and set on the magnificent Oregon coast -- is so close to my heart. A spin-off of my New YorkTimes best-selling
High Risk series, the books bring those sexy military heroes back

universal choice between what is. . . . and what could be.
Combining
my enjoyment of photography and scrapbooking, I’ve created a video
scrapbook from photos taken where the series is set. Please enjoy this
virtual tour of Shelter Bay and read about The Homecoming (formerly titled Ricochet) in coming soon!
