Who We Are

Welcome to the Dalton Creek Legacy collection, where romance intertwines with rich history and an emotional depth that honors real-life ancestors and family members of the author.

 

Journey through their lives from the original settlers of 1637 Massachusetts, to brave sea captains and military heroes who faced pivotal choices during the American Revolutionary War. Follow families divided during the Civil War, and pay tribute to grandfathers who served in World Wars I and II, as well as her husband who served as a Marine, and her youngest son proudly serving in the Marine Corps today. Experience a blend of historical figures and fictional characters, dates and events that bring the past to life in a captivating tapestry of love and legacy. 

 

However, these books are novels, not textbooks, massive liberties have been taken with names, characters, places, and incidents. All characters and events are products of the author's imagination or are used fictitiously.

 

But remember, beneath the fiction lies a bedrock of absolute truth. Real ancestors, real battlefields, and real sacrifices are deeply embedded in these pages. It is a tribute to the women who dared to love these fierce men, from the very first colonies to the active-duty bases of today. 

​

As to which parts of the Dalton Creek Legacy are historical fact and which are pure imagination... well, that is a secret left for the reader to decide.

FAQ: Do I have to read the Dalton Creek Legacy series in order, or can the books be read as stand alone?

​

The books in the Dalton Creek Legacy series are designed to be enjoyed both ways! You can read them as stand alone stories, but for the best experience, we highly recommend reading each series in order. The collection spans family legacies from the Revolutionary War through modern day. However, not all books are currently available. So, dive in and enjoy the journey, however you choose!
