An admitted research junkie, Suzanne Groves spends her time working on family genealogy for herself and for friends (when she’s not writing or editing). With their two children grown, successful, and likely not boomeranging home, she and her husband travel as frequently as possible, though it means leaving behind their feisty German Shepherd and their two very bossy cats. Of all her excursions, Groves will tell you one of her favorite memories is being dubbed “The Emu Whisperer” while on her honeymoon in Sonoma.

The Pebble in the Pond: A Tale of Stuarts Landing
Themes of family, friendship, and belonging are deftly explored in Suzanne Groves’ highly absorbing women’s fiction. The Pebble in the Pond: A Tale of Stuarts Landing follows Miriam Llewelyn, a kind-hearted, simple woman from modest roots, as she is thrust into a small town with big expectations. Often the object of ridicule and manipulation, Miriam’s spirit is continuously tested as she is treated like an outsider and a pawn in a confusing game between so-called friends. Stuarts Landing’s skewed customs have been stagnant and unchallenged for years, but Miriam’s arrival is sure to shake things up. The story begins in 1978, a time when the social tension between tradition and progress started heating up...a fundamental theme in a story about reinvention, redemption, and forgiveness.
