Christmas in July fun
In Perfectly Christmas, the medical clinic in Strathaven hosts a Secret Santa gift exchange. The only stipulation is that the gift has to be handmade. There are some clever crafty people at the clinic and everyone, except Dr. Madison Hayes, the new doctor in town, looks forward to the annual tradition. It’s lot of fun […]
Duelling professions
The Perfectly Series books are romantic comedies and are stand-alone stories. Perfectly Together, book 6, was fun to write because I had a lot of the characters from the other books “pop” in to visit. I think loyal Perfectly readers will enjoy the extra layer – sharing an in-joke. This book is about Dr. Jayden […]
Small-town story with a twist!
I wanted to put a twist on the usual small-town story where the townsfolk are trying to convince the doctor to stay. In Perfectly Christmas, the small town is worried that the new surgeon, who is only planning on staying for 2 years, will fall in love with their beloved family doctor and will lure […]
Spring is in the air!

There’s a lot of selfless love and sacrifice involved, and that’s why taking a moment to celebrate moms and to thank […]
Advice that Stays with You!
Do you ever have moments when advice you heard growing up pops into your head? My mom’s “Don’t sweat the small stuff” is a frequent one for me. Sometimes when I’m tired and debating whether I really need to floss my teeth before bed, my grandmother’s voice echoes in my head, “You only need to […]
Giving Characters Quirky Characteristics
When I’m writing a story, I give my characters, particularly the heroine, a unique and sometimes quirky characteristic to make certain that the character isn’t a cookie cutter type. Here are some examples: Mikaela Finn (Perfectly Honest) plans her day around her horoscope; Margo MacMillan (Perfectly Reasonable) judges people by the type and colour of […]
Cooking up some fun!
In Perfectly Honest, Mrs. Davy looks after Sam’s house when he’s not there and fills the fridge with meals that Sam can reheat. She makes a mean spaghetti sauce, and both Sam and Mikaela love Mrs. Davy’s chocolate chip cookies. And she makes a gluten free version! She’s sharing her recipes with us: Gluten […]
