August

I can’t believe Summer is half over, but August is still a big vacation month.  I just came back from a vacation with my entire family at Disney World in Florida. 

This was my sixth visit, and it never gets old. I didn’t go on crazy rides, but my grandchildren sure did. I very much enjoyed the Haunted Mansion!  I walked 22 miles, but my family decided I should have a scooter since they walked faster than me…I was also able to carry their stuff.  I earned the nickname “Judster with the scooter.”

 

Music has always played a big part of my life.  My mother self-taught herself to play the piano and wrote music and poems.  My brother had his own band, and my husband played the Saxophone.

When I was planning the Beacon Pointe Series, I decided the town’s focus would be the Footlight Theater, which plays a huge part in the series. Everett, the first book in the Association Series, is an Oscar and Tony Award-winning actor-songwriter. 

My mother wrote a song called “This is Paradise.”  I decided that the best way to honor my mother was to have Everett write a musical called “This is Paradise.” 

When it came to choosing a location, one of my favorite places to visit is Cape May, New Jersey, so I created my own town there.  I love the town so much, I added a second series and two other books.

All the Beacon Pointe books are page-turning, romantic suspense.

Welcome to the small town of Laurel Heights.  The town has all the vibes you’re looking for in a small-town setting.  The residents are friendly and know each other’s behind-the-door secrets.  The books don’t have to be read in order, but the town-folks support each other in the storylines.

Welcome to Destiny, a small seaside town in the Florida Panhandle. I can’t wait until you meet Cuddles, my three-legged, one-eyed alligator, the town mascot. This is a second-chance romance with characters you'll love. The women in the auxiliary are a hoot! Kane is a hunk, and Harper is a wonderful mother who owns Shells, Sand, and Second Chances antique shop. They thought their "Summer Lovin’" would last forever, but it fell apart due to gossip and betrayal. Now, the town is organizing an event for Labor Day, which requires Kane, the sheriff, and Harper, the chairperson, to work together. At the same time, they must confront the threats facing their small seaside community. Could this be their second chance to reignite the deep love they once shared?
