Author, Arriving

I've left the blog dormant, I know. I've been otherwise engaged in retiring from the Navy, moving back home to Norfolk, VA, and publishing my debut novel -- Thanks to the wonderful folks at Purple Papaya. 



Available at Amazon Kindle and Barnes and Noble Nook. Also on iTunes, and soon on Kobo.

A senior naval aviator/single mother at the pinnacle of her career deploys in a Navy flagship as director of operations for the U.S. 7th Fleet, where she confronts a cross-fire of military and personal challenges. A conniving superior seeks to discredit her, while an enigmatic yet alluring colleague cycles between nemesis and confidante.

As she struggles to defuse escalating military tension in the western Pacific, her rebellious teenage son -- beguiled by a mysterious Internet predator -- acts out and forces her to re-evaluate life choices and to face down personal demons from her past. As her self-assurance crumbles, she confronts and overcomes her own history of an abusive childhood and toxic marriage. When the unexpected specter of her destroyed marriage threatens to take her son, she brings to bear her aviator instincts and combat-honed courage in a desperate battle far more dangerous than a shooting war.

Note: Adult content.

Kudos and thanks to the outstanding professionals at Purple Papaya and their affiliate, easyePublish.com.
