Bio

She was first published in 2014 with The Dead Man's Deal, book one in the entertaining series The Witherspoon Mansion Mysteries. She and her husband own a grumpy pug named Savannah.

Thankfully, no one holds that against her, either.

Synopsis
When her husband Will is unexpectedly killed Winki Witherspoon inherits more than just a New Orleans’s mansion. She inherits his “talents”, or magical ability she never knew he had. The new domestic staff (her butler Jeeves, her maid Mrs. Black, her cook Mrs. White, and her mad-scientists, Mr. Smith and Mr. Wesson) help prepare her for the annual Tournament, a brutal conflict where House Champions vie to control the flow of good or evil energy into the mortal plane. Winki soon realizes, however, that one of them is a traitor, and possibly her husband's killer. From beyond the grave Will guides her through her new life while warning her of evil’s temptation, a vice he once succumbed to. With the help of her silent healer and her cockroach familiar, Winki must use her newfound talent to defend her home, find Will’s traitor, and protect the world before she is killed... or turns evil herself.
