Ladies Uncover a Secret

The publishing process keeps moving forward. You’ve watched as I researched, wrote and re-wrote, and finally finished the story. But that was just the beginning. More’s been done in the Ladies Uncover a Secret.

• I’m working diligently with editors and advisors to put a bow on the manuscript.
• I’ve finalized the requesting permission process to use quotes from well-known sources.

What’s coming

While I’m getting closer to a date for publishing,  there’s still a boatload to do.

• I’m getting endorsements from other authors
• I’ll be working with a cover designer
• The Publisher will offer final edits

It’s a process, but fun. Stay tuned! Ladies Uncover a Secret is scheduled to come out later this summer.

If you haven’t already read the first story, Ladies of the Fire, now would be the perfect time to do so. Get to know Lily-Rose Penbrick and learn why she ended up in Applegate, Ohio. Meet Fiona Kasey. Experience some of her sauciness and spunk from the start. And you can’t miss out on encountering Sugar Bowersox. She’s got a way about her, no doubt!

Join us and be a part of the Ladies of the Fire!

Want to see how it all began?

Can a woman on the run find herself again?

Ladies of the Fire brought us to the late 1960s as we met the newly-widowed Lily-Rose Pembrick reeling as she fled Lincoln, Nebraska, with her children. Only taking the cash from the house safe and what she could get her hands on at the family bank, she left the recently-inherited and successful Pembrick Transportation company behind. Exhausted from driving all night, she stopped in Applegate, Ohio, and decided to start a new life on Norwood Street. There, she met Fiona Kasey, an African-American no-nonsense housekeeper/companion to an elderly white woman, and Sugar Bowersox, a Southern spitfire who has lost herself in motherhood.

Together, they enjoyed Lily-Rose’s backyard fire pit, where dreams were spoken and secrets revealed. As they embraced a kinship they never would have sought, Lily-Rose began thinking her past could finally be laid to rest—until someone ended up dead.
