​An Amazon bestselling and multi award-winning author of her debut, Elizabeth’s Mountain, Lucille’s novels have garnered reviews such as “compelling,” “captivating,” and “effortlessly transporting.” Among her accolades, Elizabeth’s Mountain was the winner of the 2024 Book Viral Millennium Award and the 2025 Independent Press Award. An avid reader of most genres, Lucille admits to loving emotion-heavy stories with strong female characters that are as realistic as they are inspiring. Real women. Real lives.

Coming off the success of Elizabeth’s Mountain, her newest novel, Lunch Tales: Suellen launched in February 2025 and was a Grand Prize winner in A Woman’s Write’s 2023 novel competition, and won first place in the Firebird Books Awards Q1 2025 for relationships & friendships and second place for a contemporary novel. Also, the Silver Award for women's fiction from Readers' Favorite. Lunch Tales: Suellen is personal for her as she went through a similar medical crisis at the same age and knows firsthand all the feelings and emotions Suellen had to go through. This book is for all the extraordinary and resilient women out there who have faced similar fears. Lunch Tales: Teagan will launch January 2026, a second-chance romance with a little mystery and a lot of heart.

Lucille lives in South Carolina with her husband, close to her two daughters and grandchildren. She delights in embarrassing her kids…and now her grandkids. She loves road trips and touring the countryside. If she isn’t sightseeing or with her imagination, she usually enjoys spending it with her family at the many delightful locales in South Carolina.
