About

Hi. I'm an author of comtemporary romance and have 7 novels published at this time. Living in 'the bible belt' and being a 'born again' christian, I have to keep my books clean (No explicit sexual scenes and very few curse words). LOL!
Born in Athens Tennessee, but spent a large part of my childhood in Detroit Michigan. At the age of 13, I returned to Tennessee and attended Etowah High School.

I graduated Godsey's Beauty College in 1981 and worked as a hairdresser for 12 years. In March 1993 I closed my beauty shop and started my career in Glamour photography. I loved the traveling, 30,000-40,000 miles a year. Some of my novels were inspired by the many interesting people I met and the places I went.

<p><span style="color:#000000;line-height:115%;font-family:Arial, 'sans-serif';font-size:10pt;">Santa’s Birthday Gift was written in response to a grandchild’s question, after reading the story of the Nativity.<span>  </span>She asked, “But where’s Santa?”<span>  </span>This story tells the story of the Nativity and then goes on to tell the story about how when Jesus is born, Santa sees the star at the North Pole and travels to see the baby.  Since he is a toymaker, he brings his bag of toys - and offers them to the Christ Child, and then to all the people of the town.  His birthday gift to Jesus is a promise to bring gifts to all good boys and girls each year on the Christ Child's birthday</span></p>

Story Behind The Book

When Cathey loses her husband in a tragic plane crash, her younger sister Cassie doesn't think twice about leaving her glamorous job in New York City to be there for her sister and her three young daughters. Having lost her own father at an early age she knows what her nieces are going through. After four years Cathey finally realizes she is going to have to pull herself out of her depression,not only for her children's sake, but for her own sanity; she has to face the fact that her husband is gone and she will have to raise her daughters without a father. Imagine the shock she experiences when while on a family vacation to Disney World, she walks out of the restroom to run face to face into Daniel, the man she thought was dead and finds out that he's been living with another woman and has two sons by her.

<div class="fw-paragraph"> <div class="fw-paragraphtop"><strong><span></span>Review by Shari Trump, author<br />I picked this book up in a used book store near my home. The author's name caught my eye and I wondered if it was the Mary Collins I knew, but it wasn't. However, it was a great read and kept me interested all the way through to the end. I will be looking for more books by this author. wwwsharitrump.com</strong></div></div> <div class="fw-paragraph"> <div class="fw-paragraphtop"></div> <h3 class="fw-title"><a></a><font size="3">Review by Marcella Dutton, author and editor </font></h3> <table class="t0" border="0"><tbody><tr><td align="left"><strong>My Sister's Keeper </strong>     <img border="0" alt="stars-5-0.gif" src="http://www.bookfinder4u.com/images/stars-5-0.gif" /></td></tr><tr><td align="left"> <p>I love the way this author writes, best story i've read in a long time .
