Reading has always been one of my greatest loves. I still remember the thrill of finishing my very first book on my own — it was called Dr. Cat — and that feeling has never left me. That’s why having a dedicated, comfortable reading nook feels essential.

In our house we have multiple nooks: a chaise with a lamp in the guest room, a cozy pair of chairs near the kitchen, throws draped over inviting armchairs, and a double window seat on the third floor with the best view. Each spot is perfect for getting lost in a book.

When I first dreamed of becoming an author, I imagined a bookshelf filled with copies of my own books. Now that my thirteenth title is out, I’ve realized my shelves need to be shared — and that’s fine. It’s still a thrill to glance across a room and spot my name on a spine.

It’s hard to believe it’s been ten years since my debut novel, Dear Carolina, was published. Being an author has changed my life in delightful ways, and I’m continually humbled by the readers who make this journey possible.

If you’ve read, reviewed, recommended my books to friends, or shared them on your blog, thank you. Your support lets me keep writing, and I am deeply grateful.

Now that Summer State of Mind has been released, I hope you’ll tuck it into your favorite reading nook and visit Cape Carolina — it’s a vacation for the imagination from the comfort of your coziest chair.
Thank you for stopping by — your visits and your enthusiasm mean the world.
SUMMER STATE OF MIND is a perfect beach-bag read — I can’t wait for you to enjoy it.
