I am a 42 year old mother of two amazing grown sons and I am currently living inside my own romance story. Nearly four months ago on the anniversary of the death of my cousin, whose death inspired Mississippi Intrigue and to whose memory the book is dedicated, FaceBook reunited me with my first true love after a 22 year separation and in a whirlwind I walked away from everything in my life and am now living a dream in his arms in Alabama. Who better to write about the depths and power of love than someone who understands intricately and has the courage to follow the cry of the soul.
<p>What if you treated others the way you'd like to be treated? What if everyone did that? What kind of world could there be? Robert and Kait decide to look for the golden ruler that their Mom has told them about, only to find out that she meant RULE instead of ruler. What is this "Golden Rule" and what does it mean? Join in the children's quest to discover how to follow the Golden Rule and share it with others, as you meet many classroom friends from the author's previous books.

On August 5th 2002 my cousin, Robert Carlton "Carl" McIntosh took his own life one day after his 43rd birthday. This left me questioning what could be powerful enough to take a person to the place where suicide seems like the best option. From these questions grew the fictional story of Mississippi Intrigue.

From the moment I began reading, the story drew me in with magnetic force. It touched my emotions and my past.
