Welcome to my page! I’m so glad you stopped by. If you’re a fan of Christian fiction, Jane Austen, history, or writing, we already have a lot in common.

As a Christian author, I write fiction that not only entertains but also feeds the soul. Whether I’m writing contemporary, historical, or a blend of the two, my characters always have a clean romance, a sense of humor, and a visible faith where repentance is clear and relying on Christ is a must.

I write Christian romance under A.M. Heath, and I co-author Christian cozy mysteries under Chelsea Michelle.

From my site, you can explore more about my books, hear about the novels I’ve read, or pick up some tips from one author to another.

If you’re interested in connecting with me, you’ll find me most active in my newsletter or on Facebook.

Happy reading!

Grannies' Matches for Jake

Jake didn’t ask for one matchmaker … much less two.

Jake Markham has his hands full with rebuilding his life and plantation after the Civil War. When his old sweetheart returns home, he’s determined not to lose her again. Unfortunately, his grannies are pushing other potential brides his way, causing a challenge for Jake. If he’s not careful, Emma may slip away in all the chaos.

Returning from exile in the North, Emma Walker is hoping for time to heal, but instead, she finds herself an outcast. Seeing Jake again stirs up old feelings, but two other women might be a better match for him now. When a man from her past offers her the chance to start over out west, Emma sees no reason to say no.

Can Jake win Emma back in time, or will his grannies’ matchmaking schemes push her away?

Transactions we Expose

A shocking fire. A hidden murder. And an innocent man accused.

When a devastating house fire claims the life of local construction magnate Morris Cummings, the community immediately starts gossiping. While no one got along with Morris, the immediate suspect is Michelle Watson’s business partner—a kind-hearted elderly man who also happens to be Morris’s brother. Despite his gentle nature, the mounting evidence points squarely at Harv.

Unwilling to let an innocent man take the fall, Michelle investigates behind her police ex-boyfriend’s back. She enlists the help of her reluctant twin sister, Chelsea, whose position at Maple Springs Community Bank gives her important access to money trails.

As they track down leads and interview suspects, loyalties are overturned and faith is tested in a way that Chelsea and Michelle have never faced before.

Transactions We Expose is a Christian cozy mystery capturing the challenge of deceit, the unbreakable bond of loyalty, and the foundation of faith.

Love and Christmas Cookies

There’s only one rule in business: Do NOT fall in love with the competition!

After years of loyalty, Kate Leverett is outraged when the owner of the Cookie Tin plans to sell it out from underneath her. She now has two months to prove she deserves the shop and is not letting anyone stand in her way. Least of all her meddling stepmother or the handsome man waiting to take her place.

Wade Matthews leaves behind his aunt’s cupcake empire to build his own cookie chain. His plan hits a snag when he unintentionally dissolves a longstanding agreement. To right the wrong, he’s managing the store while the local sweetheart competes to steal it away from him.

Kate can’t get Wade to agree on anything, from marketing strategies to cookie designs. Time is running out and there may be more than ownership on the line.

Love and Christmas Cookies is a Pride and Prejudice retelling full of faith, family, romance, and TONS of Christmas cookies.

Falling Between the Pages

All’s fair in love and fiction.

If Wendy Sutton has an antagonist in real life, it’s Peyton Gentry. Being forced to co-write a serial novel with her nemesis spells disaster. Working with the far-too-attractive and way-too-confident Peyton is guaranteed to push Wendy over the edge. But this assignment is the only way to prove herself and provide for Nana.

Peyton has had his eye on Wendy for years. After ruining their first date, he’s finally been given a second chance … but only if she’ll read between the lines of the romance he’s been writing just for her.

It’ll take forgiveness and faith if these two writers are ever to find themselves on the same page in matters of life and happily-ever-afters.

Will Wendy and Peyton end up writing their own love story? Find out in this can’t-miss rom-com!

She moved on when the love of her life died in the war, but what will happen when she finds out he’s alive?  

Olivia Jernigan never thought she’d get over Grady. But three years after his death, she’s on the verge of marrying Kenneth Wade when she receives a new painting by her deceased fiance. Olivia flees home to learn what really happened to the man she thought died in the Korean War. The man she thought loved her enough to come home for her.

Grady Barnes woke up three years ago in a hospital room with no knowledge of his identity. The only memory to resurface is the image of a woman he can’t stop painting. When she suddenly shows up at his painting class, she may help him discover where he really belongs or she may disrupt the life he was building for himself.

Olivia and Grady have a history. But now, they wonder if they still have a future … or perhaps, their love is just a painted memory.
