I am an award-winning author of women’s fiction and romance. My debut novel On Common Ground was a finalist in the Great Beginnings Contest sponsored by the Utah chapter of Romance Writers of America and earned a 5-Star Readers’ Choice Award. The first two books in the Grounded Series garnered prestigious Readers Crown Awards from InD’Tale Magazine and The Ties That Bind, Book One in the Family Ties Series, earned the Literary Titan Gold Award.
My husband and I moved to historic Vicksburg, Mississippi in 2015, where we own and operate a lovely Victorian B&B. I never pass up a good meal or a good theater production. In my free time I enjoy cruising and trips to Disney World. I love reading romance, thrillers, mysteries, biographies and anything that’s well written and captivating.

Hi, Jansen…
You’re one of the winners of a digital copy of Enza (you commented on Debra Kristi’s blog). If you could send me your email address, I’ll get my PR person to send that to you. It will be coming from Lightning Book Promotions.
Thanks!

Found your site via “The Regular Guy NYC.” Was very impressed when I read published author, but a raiser of bucking bulls. Wow! 🙂

Just now read this for the first time, Patricia. Moving from the Sierra Nevadas to the flatlands of Mississippi must have been tough.
