Before the National Park novels…
My love for weaving history, faith, romance, and a strong sense of place into fiction began long before I started writing about the national parks. Out of the Ruins, the first book in my Golden Gate Chronicles, transports readers to 1906 San Francisco and the devastating earthquake and fires that changed the city forever.

While her sister lies on her deathbed, Abby Fischer prays for a miracle. What Abby doesn't expect, however, is for God's answer to come in the form of the handsome Dr. Robert King, whose experimental treatment is risky at best. As they work together toward a cure, Abby's feelings for Robert become hopelessly entangled.

Separated by the tragedy of the mighty San Francisco earthquake, their relationship suddenly takes a back seat to survival. With fires raging throughout the city, Abby fears for her life as she flees alone through burning streets. Where is God now? Will Robert find Abby, even as the world burns around them? Or has their love fallen with the ruins of the city?
