Meet the Author

Hi, I'm a writer who loves novels with a bit of a twist, a bit of a fright, something shadowy and mysterious moving through the pages. I write short stories, novellas and novels which feature strong, interesting lesbian protagonists.Characters I hope you can like, admire, and wish you knew. Maybe they're even a bit like you.


I'd love to hear from you, so be sure to catch up with me at my blog, and meanwhile - happy reading!

    Spirit

    Ii liked the way the story was written, You have to learn that with short stories that you don't always get all the answers, I think this would have been a great novel, There was a lot of imagination here, good job,

    Awful!

    Don't bother! Plot is lousy and it's not worth the cost -- oops, it's free. Still not worth the cost!
