Release Day for Under Moonlit Skies is just two weeks away! Such an exciting time for an author. All the many hours of research and writing are behind, and now it’s time to celebrate!
Under Moonlit Skies is the third and final installment in my Prairie Sky Series. I’ve so enjoyed writing these novels. I’ve learned so much, not only through researching the time period, but about writing in general.
WHAT I’VE LEARNED
In writing this series, I’ve learned that for readers to connect with my characters, they need to be real and genuine, ones readers will relate to and cheer for. My characters are flawed and in need of healing, ones who mature and grow as their stories unfold and as God stirs their hearts toward Him.
I rejoice each time I receive a comment or review that tells me the reader understood the messages woven within the novel–the message I wished to convey.
WHAT WARMS MY HEART
I’ve been so encouraged by the kind comments of readers who’ve been touched by my novels in some way. After reading this Advance Reader Review for Under Moonlit Skies, I smiled and said to myself, “She got it!” For me, that’s what it’s all about–sowing seeds of hope into the lives of readers.
WHAT’S TRULY IMPORTANT
Whether my books sell few or many, my goal is to touch hearts. The Lord has given me a desire to convey His truths through the fictional lives of my characters. It’s my prayer that those who read my novels will grow closer to the Lord right along with my characters.

Under Moonlit Skies (Prairie Sky Series ~ Book 3)
Her life was planned out ~ until he rode in ~ Illinois prairie ~ 1859
After four long years away, Esther Stanton returns to the prairie to care for her sister Charlotte’s family following the birth of her second child. The month-long stay seems much too short as Esther becomes acquainted with her brother-in-law’s new ranch hand, Stewart Brant. When obligations compel her to return to Cincinnati and to the man her overbearing mother intends her to wed, she loses hope of ever knowing true happiness.
Still reeling from a hurtful relationship, Stew is reluctant to open his heart to Esther. But when he faces a life-threatening injury with Esther tending him, their bond deepens. Heartbroken when she leaves, he sets out after her and inadvertently stumbles across an illegal slave-trade operation, the knowledge of which puts him, as well as Esther and her family, in jeopardy.
