INFORMATION
Mrs. Wilkey's first novel, Two Tattered Hearts, was published by G and J Publishers and can be found at Amazon.com. It's a novel about how Anna, an abused spouse escapes, with her son, the man-made hell she lives in and finds love.

Her second novel, Secrets of my Confederate Soldier, can be found on Amazon.com, in paperback and kindle. This story weaves together an irresistible tale shot through with romance, history, and ghostly mystery that will keep you enthralled.

Her third novel 'Under Siege on the Rockin' A' can be found on Amazon.com either paperback or kindle. This novel is an irresistible tale of romance through history, Apache beliefs, and events taken from today?s headlines. Readers will be enthralled from the first page to the last.

My boys:
Number one is retired Army
Number two is a chef and owns his own company
Number three an engineer at Barnes Jewish Children's Hospital in St. Louis
Number four is a high school math teacher

My husband and I aging more each day

To round out our family there are two cats that let their wishes known
One small Dachshund, Harley, keeps us shaking our heads at his antics

MANY THANKS TO MY REVIEWERS AND FANS.
VAYA CON DIOS.

    ulster3: People are often unreasonable, illogical and self-centered; Forgive them anyway.
    If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives; Be kind anyway.
    If you are successful, you will win some false friends and some true enemies; Succeed anyway.
    If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you; Be honest and frank anyway.
    What you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight; Build anyway.
    If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous; Be happy anyway.
    The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow; Do good anyway.
    Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough; Give the world the best you've got anyway.

    From The Paradoxical Commandments, by Dr. Kent M. Keith. Mother Teresa quoted this often.
