Almost Normal...A Novel

With Willow's ex-husband in prison, everything should be perfect between her and husband, Patrick, but something is going on that causes irritation, distrust and absolute fear. Someone is tracking Willow's every move; there's danger everywhere she turns. Patrick is skeptical and even suspects Willow has developed an overly active imagination, but then, something unimaginable happens, and their lives come unraveled. Each time the couple believe they have overcome the worst possible that could happen, another horror appears on the horizon. Can the pieces be put back together before time runs out? SPOILER ALERT: The novel also delves deeply into the subject of Alzheimer's disease.

She is co-author on the recently released autobiography of Johnny Wink titled Megabucks: Living the Dream.
