September is here, temperatures are dropping and the kids are back in school. Our daughter has started preK and I have spent one morning with no kids at home. It doesn't feel too strange because we have been lucky to have family close by that likes to have the kids over often.

I hope you have all had a wonderful summer and are settling back into fall life easily.

August 24 I quietly released book three of The Morton Family Saga.

The Awakening is Gavin Morton's book!

Gavin Morton’s life and business fell apart when his partner embezzled everything the company had.

Moving to Montana to run the ranch he and his brothers own has given him the space from all the trouble in Texas, and his family.

Elyse Bowers is running from the only life she has ever known. Growing up in a strict, reclusive community, she would be forced to marry someone her father chose. She doesn't wait to see who will decide her future after being pushed away by her fiancée.

Elyse and Gavin enter into a fake relationship to save her from the horror of being taken home.

What will happen when Gavin takes her back to Texas? How will his family react to the news of their relationship?

Will Gavin and Elyse be convincing enough as a couple to fool everyone around? And what will happen when what happened in Montana comes back to haunt Elyse?

The Awakening

Also July 15th I released a short story as part of a collaboration. The Heart of a Wounded Hero collaboration involved storied of wounded military personnel.
