    About this ebook

    Mia always falls for the wrong man. The school bully, the sketchy con artist, the married professor. At her five-year high school reunion she comes face-to-face with the bad choice that started it all. Now she can finally forgive herself, forget him, and move on.

    But she's not the only person caught up in old memories.

    And when all the secrets are revealed, she may be less willing to move on than she thought...

    Chance of Happiness is the second in a series of new short stories set around the crisp green San Juan Islands in Northwestern Washington. Light and sweet, they are perfect for a quick lunch break so you can return to the rest of your day with a feel-good smile.

      The Courage To Be Happy

      Feb 1, 2023

      MARRIAGE and columns have this in common: you tend to repeat yourself. More than once in these pages, I have quoted the New Yorker’s legendary film critic Pauline Kael. After President Nixon’s landslide victory in 1972 she wrote: ‘I live in a rather
