I write heartfelt women's fiction and contemporary romance that feels real. Books have always been a part of my life, and reading has always been a favorite pastime – from my childhood bookworm days when I would hide away with Trixie Belden or Laura Ingalls Wilder, to my busy parenting days when I forgo laundry, housecleaning and sleeping to carve out time for my latest book club read. I love curling up with a cup of tea and getting lost in a good story.
My novels are about people and their relationships – what brings them together, what keeps them apart. My intent is to bring to life interesting and ‘real’ characters that you, the reader, can relate to in real-life situations that combine a little fun, plenty of drama (with perhaps a tear or two), and big helpings of friendship, love and self-discovery, and will leave you either cheering or sighing with a satisfied smile as you turn the final page.
And just so you know . . . I like a happy ending.

Reviews of Unexpected Legacy by Darlene Deluca
Imagine finding out you have a 16 year old son from a one night stand when you were still in high school. Add to that, his mother left him with his grandparents when he was 5. You find out about him because he was in a horrible accident that leaves him handicapped and scarred and his grandparents can no longer take care of him due to health issues. Add some love interest and you have one interesting story.
This is also a romance novel, a second plot expertly woven throughout the story. Kate is drawn to Matt, although she fights it because she is the new principal of Brady's school. She doesn't want to be accuse of anything immoral or showing favoritism. Chance meetings and issues with Brady at school keep bringing them together. Adding more interest to the story.
This was a great story that I couldn't seem to put down
