Blurb:

Finally, life is good for reluctant family law attorney, Jamie Quinn--her father may get his visa soon, her boyfriend is the bomb, and her law practice is growing like crazy--but when she agrees to take on a high-profile divorce case, everything falls apart. What looked like an opportunity to work with her friend Grace and make some serious bucks has turned into a deadly game, one that could destroy their friendship and tear their town apart. Why couldn't Jamie just leave well enough alone?

Cutest baby wombat ever! :-)

As you may know, I have a fondness for wombats--even if they are the reason my poor protagonist Jamie Quinn can't be with her boyfriend, Kip. Check out this short video of the cutest baby wombat ever, you'll see why. :-)

Pet adoption video that will make your day! :-)

My son, Josh, made a very sweet video about pet adoption for an NYC rescue group called Pillows for Paws©, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. The mission of the RescueMen© campaign is to raise awareness to adopt, not shop for companion animals and showcase how wonderful and loving shelter/rescue animals can be.

Here is the link to the video on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/RescueMenUSA/videos/576628049198223/

Donations to the campaign are used to bring essential material items needed on a monthly basis to NYC homeless cats, dogs, and rabbits at the city's animal shelters. This includes, beds, toys, treats, grooming and behavioral enrichment supplies.

Homeless animals come into a shelter having been abused, abandoned, or neglected, with most of them beyond frightened. Supporting their emotional stability is important to the overall well-being of an animal as they spend time in a traumatic shelter environment. Healthy, stimulated and relaxed shelter animals are more likely to be adopted. This is everyone’s goal!
