Now Available in KU: Pieces of Perfect
In One Perfect Summer, three women who had never met—and seemed to share nothing but a DNA match—discovered they were sisters. Their search to uncover how and why brought them together and transformed strangers into family.
Now, in Pieces of Perfect, those bonds are tested, deepened, and celebrated as they continue to explore what it truly means to belong.
Pieces of Perfect is now exclusively available from Amazon. You can read it for free with a Kindle Unlimited subscription.
For the richest reading experience, be sure to enjoy One Perfect Summer first—available in print, audio, and digital formats.
Cover reveal for MEET ME IN ITALY
Of all the books I’ve written, this is the cover I was most eager to see—and my publisher did not disappoint. Isn’t the cover for MEET ME IN ITALY spectacular?
Last year, when we went for Alexa and Vinny’s wedding, we spent nearly a month in Italy—much of it on the Amalfi Coast—and I completely fell in love. The book is set in Praiano; I even included the very villa we stayed in. The view from San Gennaro Cathedral (Chiesa di San Gennaro), which sits in the heart of the village square in Vettica Maggiore, inspired the cover.
Meet Me In Italy *Sacramento Reader Weekend
Join me in Sacramento April 11th-12th, 2026 to be transported to Italy and celebrate my new release MEET ME IN ITALY! We’ll be having an Italian cooking demonstration, eating the food mentioned in MEET ME IN ITALY, going wine tasting, attending a book signing (with some surprise guests), goodie bags and so much more!
