New Release!
Fireflies at Dusk
I have a new novel just in time to make a great Christmas present. Fireflies at Dusk is my first historical, and is set during the Civil War era. It's a compelling coming-of-age story about a young man growing up in a pacifist family. The injustice of slavery causes him to turn his back on everyone who’s ever loved him and join the Union Army when the Civil War breaks out.
Can he reclaim his faith, family, and his sweetheart in the furious cauldron of the war or has he drifted too far away?
