The Last Train from Harrow Bend
The station at Harrow Bend had seen better days. Its paint was peeling, its clock ran four minutes slow, and
I am a grandmother of three and a mother of two daughters whom I love dearly. While my “grown-up” life involves helping my husband run our building and remodeling company, my heart truly belongs to the magic of childhood.
Join three adventurous boys—Lincoln, Caleb, and baby Caden—as they spend their summer afternoons at their beloved Meme and Pepe’s house. Behind the house lies a magical secret garden, a place filled with vibrant flowers, singing birds, and playful fairies that only children and those who believe in magic can see.
The boys’ summer takes a turn when a tiny baby bird falls from its nest and lands in a big pot of flowering lavender. While the boys initially dream of keeping the bird as a pet, they soon learn a valuable lesson about love and family. With the help of Meme and Pepe, they devise a plan to reunite the baby bird with its mother, discovering that the greatest magic of all lies in caring for others.
The Secret Garden is a delightful story that celebrates the bonds of family, the beauty of nature, and the pure heart of a child.
Finding Magic in the Everyday
I am a grandmother of three and a mother of two daughters whom I love dearly. While my “grown-up” life involves helping my husband run our building and remodeling company, my heart truly belongs to the magic of childhood.
I believe that as we become adults, we often get too busy to see the wonder around us. That is why I love turning everyday events into magical fantasies for my grandsons. Whether it’s listening to the squirrels chat or spotting fairies hiding in the lavender, I find inspiration in the innocence of my three boys—Lincoln, Caleb, and Caden. Through my writing, I hope to share that sense of wonder and remind readers that true magic is found in our love for one another.
“A beautiful reminder of the magic that exists in a grandmother’s garden. This story captures that fleeting moment in childhood where the line between reality and fantasy is perfectly blurred. A must-read for families!”

“I loved the authentic bond between Meme, Pepe, and the boys. It’s rare to find a story that so gently teaches empathy and the importance of putting others’ needs before our own. The ‘white glove’ detail was just precious!”

“As a fellow writer, I’m enchanted by how this book turns a simple backyard mishap into a grand, fairy-filled adventure. It’s a sweet, nostalgic tale that makes you want to go outside and look a little closer at the flowers.”

“My kids were captivated by Lincoln, Caleb, and Caden’s mission to save the bird. It’s a wonderful teaching tool for parents to talk about wildlife, kindness, and why some animals belong in the wild, not in a box!”

“A heartwarming gem. The author has a gift for seeing the world through a child’s eyes. It reminded me so much of my own summers spent at my grandparents’ house. Pure magic!”
