My Muse's Musings

In July 2024, I released Building Courage, the 11th book in the SEAL Team Heartbreakers Series. Just before that, my editor, Faith Freewoman, had some life-changing health issues and had to retire from editing. She'd been with me for 12 years.  I was heartbroken because we're good friends. Luckily Delilah Devlin was able to step in and edit the book. Bless her.  At the same time, Faith was having issues; my cover artist and one of my best friends, Tracy Hacker, also had to retire due to health reasons. She'd been with me for 14 years.  I'm looking for a new cover artist for Building Hope, my next book. Please be patient. It may take me a while to find the right fit.  In the meantime, I'm posting the blurb  I don't have a release date yet, but dear readers, you'll be the first to know when I do.   Blurb for Building Hope (Book 12 of the SEAL Team Heartbreakers) :  After a three-month deployment, Navy SEAL Frank Denotti walks off the transport plane...
