My dog is getting old. I remember the day we picked him from the litter. It had long been a dream of mine to choose a puppy like that, to compare the siblings side by side and say, you.

I went in for a planned surgery this past June, and though the procedure went as expected, later that night my husband had to call 911 due to complications.

Happy one year book birthday to To Poison a King! To celebrate, the Kindle version is on sale today for $0.99.

Here she is. Today, my fourth book is officially published. Selene is the youngest daughter in a gifted line of healers, born to serve as the king's royal physician. Yet when Selene's mother Persaphe embroils her in a plot to kill the king, Selene finds herself poisoning the very man she is sworn to protect. Things seem bleak, but there is another problem—the poison doesn’t work, and the king doesn’t die. Rather, he awakes from his coma paralyzed, aware of the attempt on his life, and furious.
