"Crocodile Tears" is a Finalist in the Rising Star Award given by the The Women's Fiction Writer's Association

Exciting news! My debut Women’s Fiction Novel, Crocodile Tears (working title) has been named one of five finalists in the Women’s Fiction Writers Association Rising Star Awards. The Rising Star Awards are open to all unagented authors of Women’s Fiction who are unpublished in the genre.

Crocodile Tears is Hatfields & McCoys meets Romeo & Juliet. An enemies-to-lovers story steeped in a century-old family feud. A late patriarch wills half of his wine empire fortune to the daughter of the enemy family. If she and his hostile son want to collect, they have to end the feud.

Thanks so much to WFWA and the first-round judges who took the time to read it!
