All Aboard
Andrew has inherited a great deal of money from his father, but it came with some unusual stipulations. The first of these is to organize a private cruise for fifty people, all over the age of fifty. While it’s a challenge for Andrew—a thrifty homebody bordering on curmudgeonly—it’s nothing new for his wife, Abigail—a bossy extrovert who loves to plan a party.
Andrew and Abigail choose to invite family and friends to join them as they cruise the Channel Islands off the California coast. The cruise is full of vibrant people, including Hank, Abigail’s sweet, hard-of-hearing father; three spunky women in their nineties who like to hula; and Cousin Olivia, who just may have it in for Abigail. The group comes face-to-face with the different stages of aging as they enjoy– and survive–adventures and misadventures on the islands while experiencing the vacation of a lifetime.
All Aboard invites you into the lives of each of the characters—some exploring exciting new love in marriage, others sharing enduring love that has lasted long after the wedding day, and others that are navigating the ups and downs of being single. This is a fantastic stand-alone book with an unexpected and compelling twist at the end—leaving readers excited to read more, with none of the dreaded end-of-book depression as they jump right into the next book in the series.

Bayside Brio
Fifty-five-year-old Brooke is a word-loving librarian who used to be perfectly content. But she and her husband, Ben, find themselves in rough waters. They returned home from a “Fifty over Fifty” cruise faced with the opportunity to inherit a substantial sum of money, but only if they create a project to help local senior citizens. Brooke is excited about the challenge–Ben, not so much.
But it couldn’t have come at a worse time. Their marriage is already wobbling. Ben is fighting his midlife crisis by shopping for shiny new cars, while Brooke is wrestling with how to confess she’s lost the diamond from her wedding ring. Their first attempt at therapy ends in a train wreck, but not without some welcome laughter. Add in their worries about aging parents, and life feels anything but simple—although Ben’s father’s hair-raising driving habits just might steer them toward an idea for their project. And as the troublesome tides of life ebb and flow, Ben and Brooke weather a disastrous flood, the discovery of unwelcome visitors living in their backyard, and one unforgettable dumpster diving adventure. If Brooke and Ben want to claim the inheritance (and maybe, just maybe, save their marriage), they’ll have to survive the chaos—and decide if growing old together is still part of the plan.
Love, loss, and laugh-out-loud moments—welcome to Bayside Brio.
“I don’t care where we go. I just want to get this trip over with,” Andrew grumped. One of his favorite mottos was “just get it over with,” even for the good stuff. Andrew was a creature of habit and liked his routine.”
