Shipwrecked in Key West Salvaged Love is the story of a young girl's journey into womanhood and her need to carve a place for herself in the small island community and in the heart of her husband. Set in 1828 at the cusp of Key West's rise to wealth from ship salvaging, the story blends fact and fiction to entertain and highlight the fascinating history of Key West, Florida. Nineteen year old Abigail Bennington eagerly accepts her father's invitation to sail to the Caribbean in a desperate need to escape her current situation. They sail from England expecting a six month holiday. Plans turn awry when they become stranded in Key West, a newly settled island at the entrance of the Gulf of Mexico, surrounded by treacherous reefs, and inhabited mostly by men. Abby becomes enchanted with the tiny island and its residents until circumstances force her father to insist she marry. Now locked in matrimony, can the young couple's burgeoning love survive resentment and isolation? This is the first book in the generational series Love in Key West. It is a complete story and can be read as a single book. However, much as we are our own story tied to those before and after us, so is this book tied to the first and those that will follow. My intention is to take the generations of my fictional characters through the captivating history of Key West.

Theodore is in desperate need of change. A recently widowed writer for a New York paper, Theodore Whitmore is struggling with his grief and the care of his young son. His boss, more friend than employer, offers an irresistible assignment in the hopes of helping Theodore cope with his melancholy. What starts as a summer sabbatical in Key West, Florida, turns into an extended adventure embroiling Theodore in the Second Seminole War. Can peace be found for the country and the turbulence in his heart? Love Again is set in a time when our nation is young, arrogant, and expanding, but a political storm is brewing over slavery. In the midst of this heyday with its dark undercurrents, Theodore finds his loyalties tested. His patriotism collides with the injustices perpetrated on the indigenous people, and his sympathies are challenged by their brutal retaliation against the pioneer settlers of Florida. Can Theodore remain true to his beliefs and avoid taking sides in the midst of the swirling conflict? Although, Love Again is the second book in the series, it is a complete story and can be read as a single book. However, much as we are our own story tied to those before and after us, so is this book tied to the first and those that will follow. The Love in Key West books are generational stories, blending facts and fiction, to highlight the fascinating history of Key West, Florida.
