- As the mother of two teenagers who had become independently mobile, it occurred to them (not me) that I should spend more time pursuing my own interests. In other words, thanks for the car keys, we'll see you later. I stared at the slamming door and realized, I needed to rediscover what those interests were.
I have always loved being swept away to historical settings but the more I read, the more I found myself trying to rewrite the author. When I found myself more frustrated than satisfied, there was no way around it, I had to write. So, I surrounded myself with knowledgeable, caring peers and did something I had never done before, I did something for me.
Writing has become my passion. I hope it shows as I share with you my love of the 1700s.
- COST OF FREEDOM blurb:
- In a Boston cemetery, Abigail Matthews overhears two Patriots plotting against her beloved England. She confides in her childhood friend William Jackson and is shocked to learn of his support and involvement with the Sons of Liberty.
Alone one night, and surrounded by an English patrol, Abigail shoots a British soldier. She is no longer seen as a Loyalist and tries to escape the watch. William finds her and brings her with him to Berkshire where they discover hostile Loyalists, unstable Indian alliances, and each other.
William sets out on one last assignment and is confronted by the man Abigail shot and a female gun smuggler. In the flash of a discharged gun barrel, William fights for more than freedom.
