Chris’ desire to become a published writer began at an early age.  When she received her first A on a story she wrote in fifth grade, Chris knew she wanted to be an author.  However, writing romance fiction books didn’t enter the picture until later in her life.  She didn’t read many romance books growing up, but after college, discovered the genre fictions of mystery and romance.  Her favorite authors are Suzanne Brockmann and Lisa Gardner, both of whom she has had the pleasure of meeting.

After the birth of her second child, Chris was ready to take her writing to the next level and joined Romance Writers of America and her local RWA chapter.  There she embarked on learning the real craft and business of writing.

Published Romance Fiction Books

In 2004, Wings Press published her first romantic suspense book titled The Drinking Game.  In 2007, Enspiren Press published her next book Corpse Whisperer, a paranormal romantic suspense book.  Interested readers can order both books from online and brick and mortar stores.

Along the way, Chris has sold stories to confession markets and developed a workshop on writing from the male point-of-view, which she will teach three times in 2009.

What’s New

Currently, Chris is working on a romantic comedy, a change from the suspense and mystery genres.  In addition, she has recently joined a new writers’ group called Liberty States Fiction Writers.
