Guardian of Her Heart, Book 5 in the fantasy romance Angel series.
Hey there! Welcome to my world, my escape from reality. I'm the author of the historical romance Wellington Cross series, the paranormal romance Angel series, and the new historical romance Wellington Patriot series.
Happy May! This is my favorite month of the year. First, we have the Kentucky Derby, which I love to dress up for with a big hat with friends and watch the race on TV, then it's Mother's Day weekend (I am proud to have a son who lives in Florida). Then it's my birthday after that, and the month finishes off with Memorial Day weekend, the start of the tourist season here in Virginia Beach. There are also many things blooming in our garden now, like our roses, azalea, purple irises, tall phlox, sweet William, and our Confederate jasmine, buzzing with bees and smelling so good. It's always exciting to see what blooms next, one of my favorite times of the year.
My new book Guardian of Her Heart is now available! I'm so excited to share with you the continuing stories from my Angels series. This is book 5. Courtney is now living the farm life, but danger comes to their property in many forms. Brooke falls in love but is not sure she should trust him. Catch up with the whole Angel series, which is available on Amazon, and/or also my Wellington Cross and Wellington Patriot series, as these books connect to my Angel series. I am currently working on Book 6 in the series. More details on that later.

Guardian of Her Heart
(Book Five in the Angel Series)
Dr. Courtney Beck-Carson, a newlywed who had just moved into her husband’s farmhouse, starts enjoying the farm life of raising cows, chickens, horses, and dogs. She thinks that everything is perfect, but then she loses a baby. In her grief, her friends urge her to read the diary of their ancestor, Bronwyn Wellington, where Courtney finally finds comfort. After getting tested for her DNA, she finds new relations, both present and past, that give her newfound strength and hope for the future. But when danger comes to the farm, she and Owen are surprised by who is behind it.
Brooke Meadows, a cousin of Jen Callaway and Cassie Garrett, has just returned from Ireland and a flirtatious friendship with Irishman, Tiernan O’Donnell. Back in Virginia Beach, she begins working at Dr. Courtney’s office and also helping her at her farmstand at Carson Farm. It is there that she meets the new hired hand, Dillon McGregor, a handsome cowboy who is polite and charming, and soon makes her forget the Irishman. She finds herself enjoying the farm life and falling in love with Dillon. But he has many secrets, which cause her to wonder if she should trust him or not. When Dillon is shot, she wonders if they will be able to have a life together or not. Will she get her happily ever after?
About Me
I was born and raised in Johnson City, Tennessee, and went to college at East Tennessee State University before marrying my high school sweetheart and moving to Virginia Beach, Virginia. I started writing as a hobby when I was in college after purchasing a couple of Southern Heritage cookbooks, which were filled with pages of beautiful old plantation homes. I used to sit outside in my backyard and type on a manual typewriter at a picnic table under tall maple trees. I continued writing after moving to Virginia Beach and visiting beautifully restored homes in Williamsburg as well as plantations on the James River. My day job is a court reporter now, while writing on the side. I self-published my first book in December 2012, Wellington Cross. I enjoy the freedom and creativity of self-publishing. My book, Sunrise Kisses, was a finalist in the 2018 Golden Quill Award Contest sponsored by Golden Box Books Publishing. I love being outside in nature and enjoy visiting historical homes and gardens, reading, traveling, gardening, taking walks, doing yoga, and spending time with family and friends. I am still married to my sweetheart after 35 years, and we have one son. If you'd like to read an interview of me by AllAuthor, click here.
My Books
First of all, I love writing about romance. To me, the best stories are about love and relationships. So that's what I write about. I have three series of books so far. The first series I have published is the Wellington Cross Series, which is set in the late 1800s on plantations along the James River in Virginia. The second series I have written is the Angel Series, which is set in modern times in Virginia Beach about angels and their interactions with humans. My newest series is the Wellington Patriot Series, which takes place in the late 1700s during the time of the American Revolution.
I live in Virginia Beach and I like writing about this area. I've been living here for 34 years now and I love it. There is so much to do close by. There are miles and miles of beautiful beaches, sand dunes, trails, and many bodies of water: the ocean, the bay, and many rivers, canals, and man-made lakes. Also nearby are Colonial Williamsburg and the James River Plantations, which inspired me to write historical novels. I have toured many historical plantations and homes, and they help me to picture stories in my head so I can then write it down.
All of my books are available on Kindle through Amazon and also in paperback through Amazon and Barnes & Noble (by order). Amazon has a special - if you order the paperback version through them, you get the Kindle version for FREE! I hope you enjoy reading them as much as I enjoy writing them.
