Welcome ♥
Thank you for being here for a shared love of reading and writing!
I’m a small town girl with big dreams. I write inspirational stories with beautiful settings, unforgettable characters, and small town love - all with a sprinkle of humor.
As a Life Scientist and Biology Professor with an MFA in Creative Writing, I love weaving the natural world and the fictional to discover the beauty in all of creation.
Teagan’s Treasure, my debut novel and the first book of my Emerald Isle University Series, releases on May 28th through Vinspire Publishing.
The Emerald Isle University Series is a New Adult Fiction series highlighting the stories of three sisters and their adventures of self-discovery and love in Ireland—the land of rolling green hills, mysterious legends, and hidden treasures.
There's many adventures to come…
And, I’m so grateful to share this journey with you!

“Certain moments in life change everything, and nothing will ever be the same again. Moments when, in an instinct, past years drift away in a swirl of memories, like a fracture prelude to the life you were meant to live. Those moments come like a whisper but the story shouts for an eternity.”
-Teagan in Teagan’s Treasure
“Teagan's Treasure is a story that has what teen girls love - a strong and relatable female main character in a story that is filled with romance, mystery, and horses! It also has what moms want - a quality story line for their daughters that is wholesome and pure. As a mom of 5 daughters, I am grateful for authors like Colleen Marie.”
-Kelly Ann Guest, author of Saintly Moms:
25 Stories of Holiness
“Teagan’s Treasure is a reflection of our lives…in search of meaning, looking for a treasure, and seeking love while our true calling is handed to us through life’s events, people, and animals which God puts in our lives. This story is about letting go, trusting God, and following the path that God has designed for us.”
-Father Santos George, O.SS.T
