No fairy-tales, just life. Nova Scotia
About the author

You know those books that are almost impossible to put down, not because of some great mystery, or high-speed chase, or sexy scene, but because they're full of characters who enrage and delight you; Imperfect people in circumstances that could hit any one of us. Characters full of human frailties who don't always make the best choices ... But who never give up when knocked down. Who struggle and fight and come out on the other side stronger, braver, ready to live a life of their own making. The books that you finish and still wonder about, because there were no fairy-tale endings, just a closing of that chapter in the character's life, with a lesson learned or a hurt resolved. Yet beyond the pages you know there's so much more ... Books that feel like they become a part of you. Books with a little grit. Those are the books I love, and those are the books I set out to write.
