This gives her permission to keep up that kind of eccentric behavior. It also makes her introversion and dorkiness kind of cool instead of just plain weird. Since she has given up all aspirations of an affluent retirement, she spends much of her time writing women's fiction which sounds more impressive than romance--to her, anyway. When not writing, she's staring out the window imagining the next scene, sewing, watching movies or begrudgingly cleaning the cat box. She successfully abandoned her two adult children and currently lives near Phoenix Arizona with her husband and two cats and puppy.

Her children have forgiven her and are moving on to bigger and better things. Get to Know Us. English Choose a language for shopping. Does she get her happily-ever-after? Read Lilyland and find out. To enter the blog hop contest for a chance to win the prize described below.

By truly indie, I mean too poor to be able to afford editors, formatters, etc.

Being able to do all this is a joy and privilege I never expected to have. Last year, I decided to republish my fist book, Another Place on the Planet. In the meantime, my mother passed away and my husband was diagnosed and then successfully treated for cancer.

I worked on other projects, finishing up book 2 of LIlyland, then doing the rough draft of book 3. Then I spent weeks and months on Word and Scrivener perfecting formatting to the best of my ability only to have it look less than wonderful when Kindle got a hold of it. I designed a new cover. There are people who do these kinds of things for indie writers and I hope in the future to be able to afford them so I can spend more time writing. I also hope that next time I make a cover or format a manuscript I can remember what I learned during the previous bouts of learning.

So, as I write this, Kindle is in the process of publishing my book.

As a former victim of domestic violence, there were many times that I could remember that part of my life where it seemed like everything caused a flashback.

This is an excellent testament of hope for people who have been her place to show, regardless of the situation, it can get better and be better. There are Christian undertones and excerpts throughout the story but not excessively and always used to highlight Lily's journey from where she was to where she ended up. I would have liked to have more detail about Charlie and what made him the way he was.

They exchange phone numbers, but never call. His easy sexy charm entices her, and his wounded soul compels her to reveal

His intense therapy and rehab are mentioned but not in much detail. Perhaps if there is a sequel that part of the storyline can be developed. There were also a few part of the story that seemed to drag a little for me but after a few pages it was over. There were several times throughout the story that I found myself welling up with tears, wanting to shout at certain characters, or just to take them by the shoulders and shake them.

To me, that makes for an excellent story. Overall, an excellent read for anyone who's not afraid to recognize that all storys, people, characters and lives are not sunshine and roses.

And it was horrible. I wish that she'd ended up with David at least, but in the end, it was nothing but Charlie. Sure, he ended up going through what sounded like some pretty intensive and badly-needed therapy, but I wish that the ending had been different. And I seriously wish that the story had come to an end sometime around when they wrapped the filming.
