Things you probably don't know...
I am a foster momma with six kiddos. They are ages 3-8 and they are all so different. When we go places, people like to ask me if we are a Sunday School or Field Trip group-NOPE, just my family.
I married the boy I have loved since I was 16. He is now a travel nurse and was a COVID nurse when things were super scary, and I am just thankful he stayed healthy.
I previously worked as a 911 dispatcher/hostage negotiator, turned Christian School Principal (Same training), and now I get to SAHM and work as a social media manager, book coach, public speaker, and am diving deep into my dream of being a published author.
We also breed Bernedoodles, raise chickens and goats, and enjoy every breath God has given us.
I am able to do all this by the love and support of family, friends, and running on Jesus & Coffee!
This is the scariest and most challenging thing I have ever done but with every new reader I meet, I am living my dream!
I hope you enjoy my books!
Book Synopsis: Disgusted by a world with no moral compass, “Resetters” decide to clean things up. They start the world over with just 500 people who they deem “good” enough.
The catch: Every bad action is monitored and goes against you. Too many bad actions and the whole town will meet its doom. The plan has worked, until now…
The model city, Utopian, can’t seem to keep the new kid Tommy out of trouble. The unthinkable happens and Utopian is set for a full ReSet, but when the ”Resetters” arrive, the town has already vanished. Tommy must unite with his foe, perfect Charlie, to save themselves and everyone else.
Grab your copy to dive into the world of adventure with Tommy, Charlie and the Utopian.

— Another evil enterprise —
— Another chance for virtue —
----
In
the wake of Grayson Jeffer’s “ReSet,” America’s few remaining citizens
have been subjected to a total-surveillance system. Under the leader’s
all-seeing eye, each community must work together to avoid bad behavior .
. . for if too many “marks” are accrued, the citizens will be wiped
out. All for the greater good.
----
Now—in
a twist of fate befitting the twisted times—“Picture-Perfect” Charlie
Newsome and Tommy Tankerson, the tortured trouble-maker who
single-handedly brought about two ReSets, are compelled to join forces.
Utopian
has fallen—largely due to Tommy’s handiwork—but Charlie’s resourceful
father, Alford, doesn’t intend to let his people go down without a
fight. Having gone off-grid, they’re now true rebels. Undertopian.
