Fleetwood Street
Bernadette “Bonnie” Sweeney only wants to repair her late mother’s bakehouse. The only thing standing in her way is money. Her brother’s solution? Follow the rules the family has put in place and marry. Her future husband is insufferable.
Journalist Alain Descoteaux likes to indulge in literature, getting the facts, and entertaining after-hours encounters. What he doesn’t enjoy? Documenting his best friend’s impending wedding that’s set to be the wedding of 1923.
This begins a whirlwind of emotions, and stands, and awakens appetites neither knew possible. They take all of that…and bake it into a delectable meat pie.
Fleetwood Street is a Sweeney Todd reimagining set in Prohibition New York. Perfect for readers who crave the atmospheric darkness and historical feminine revenge of Slashed Beauties meets the mundane made murderous of Victorian Psycho with the dark romantic comedy of Butcher and Blackbird.

You're Such a Doll
I had the absolute pleasure of working with fellow Marketer and Voice Over Artist, Claire Coyle who narrated my 8-Part horror short story, "You're Such a Doll".
Set in the 1990s, Annette Simms is on the hunt for the perfect friend for her niece and gets just most than she bargains for when she enters Wisteria Place. A perfect dollhouse replica complete with tea parties and dolls that look a little too real.
If you love Claire's voice and range as much as I do visit:
