Second act romance & other stories for women who've lived long enough to write a book...or two.

You know what I love most about writing for women in their second act? It’s that we’re living, breathing testimonies to second chances. Third chances. Heck, some of us are on chance number seventeen, but who’s counting except the good Lord, and He’s got infinite patience.

 

Every time I write a scene where Jeannie Marie (the character me, not the real me — though sometimes I forget which is which) encourages a friend to try again, to open her heart one more time, to believe that love isn’t just for the young and the wrinkle-free, I’m really writing about grace. The kind of grace that says you’re never too old, too broken, too anything to start a new chapter. 

That’s not just romance novel philosophy, darlin’. That’s gospel truth dressed up in sequins and sass.
