Release of The Grand Masquerade
Don't miss the release of my latest novel, The Grand Masquerade Thursday, Oct. 9th 2014!
"For readers who like historical fiction with a little romance.
It is a life built on secrets, lust, and lies, and Sydnee Sauveterre is at the center of the charade. Used as a source of income at a stand on the Natchez Trace, Sydnee escapes to start a new life in Louisiana. Gifted with visions and a knowledge of Hoodoo, she must find her way through the quagmire of danger and deceit that is 19th Century New Orleans. She bans together with four friends to create an illusion within the elegant, high society of the Louisiana Creole. It is a risky charade meant to fulfill all of their secret desires, and Sydnee gambles everything, including love, to lead this double life. Will she survive the grand masquerade?"

The Magnificent Ambersons-Booth Tarkington
Oh my gosh, I have been away from my usual haunts for a while, and now I am back to the books I love, back to early Twentieth Century fiction and loving it. What a rich beautifully written tale of redemption (and a good movie too).
Booth Tarkington dares to open with intricate descriptions of the home, the clothing and the lifestyle of the nouveau riche in a Midwestern town, setting the scene for decadence and pretension that follows the entire novel. It is not a difficult read and flies right along and you will love and sometimes hate the characters. This is a terrifically satisfying story which restores your faith in human nature and our ability to change for the better. Do not miss this Pulitzer Prize winner.
