The Mask On paper, I was a Fortune 500 executive. I had the career, the reputation, and the polished smile. But behind the closed doors of my office, I was quietly unraveling. I spent years mastering the art of the "High-Functioning" addict, hiding the bottles, managing the lies, and terrifyingly pretending that I was in control. When I finally faced the truth, I realized that recovery wasn’t just a medical issue. It was a fight for survival. Why My Stories Changed I started writing to document that private war. My early novels, like The Double Life of a High-Functioning Alcoholic and From Wine Mom to Sober Mom, were born from that desire to pull back the curtain on the addiction that hides behind ambition and parenthood. But as I began writing my five-book saga, The Daughter of a Drunk, the story refused to stay a quiet drama. I realized that the story of addiction is naturally full of high-stakes danger. It is built on secrets, betrayal, corrupt systems, and life-or-death choices. That is why my writing evolved from "recovery stories" into psychological thrillers. What You Can Expect I don’t write polite stories about getting sober. I write about the wreckage. Whether it’s Olivia Parker fighting corrupt billionaires in The Daughter of a Drunk or a mother risking everything to protect her children in From Wine Mom to Sober Mom, my novels blend the raw authenticity of true recovery with the edge-of-your-seat pacing of a thriller. If you want a story that feels uncomfortably real and keeps you reading until 3:00 AM, you’re in the right place.
