Lorraine Nelson lives in rural New Brunswick, on the east coast of Canada. Always a bookworm, she’s read many novels of romance and mystery over the years, finally deciding to put her pen to work at writing one. “To write romantic suspense is my dream job, although my mom says I was born with an avid imagination and pencil in hand, crafting stories from an early age.”

I am mother to three wonderful boys, grandmother to four fantastic grandsons and two beautiful granddaughters. I live alone with an independent yet affectionate tomcat. Now my children have grown and have lives of their own, I have time to indulge my passion for writing. When not at the computer, you can find me spending time with family, gardening, baking and, of course, readi ...more

I’m Back…and Guess What?

…I’m writing again.

Hello! Is anyone still with me? I’ve been away much longer than I intended. Life changes have really thrown me for a loop in recent years and I’m trying, yes trying, to get back on a secure footing with my writing…beginning now.

Who remembers my first release? That’s right. Zakia and the Cowboy.

Hi, Kim!
Thank you for taking the time to comment.

I've been a fan of Harlequin for many years, and have submitted several queries/manuscripts during my writing journey. I haven't given up on being published by Harlequin, but my Thunder Creek Ranch series with Evernight is doing well and keeps me busy. Added to that, I just signed three new contracts with Breathless Press in January.

Thank you again for making contact. :-)
Lorraine
