About the author

I live in the Northwoods of Wisconsin, on the shores of Green Bay. I have always been a voracious reader of romances, mostly historical romances and sweeping historical sagas. I love researching different time periods and imagining what life was like back then so it seems only natural to write historical romances. My one vice, aside from reading romances, is coffee. I melt beneath the intoxicating sway of a strong white mocha latte promising to embrace my senses and carry me away. Mmmm . . . I can visualize the steam rising from that frothy cup as I sit here thinking of it.

I write Historical Romance novels and non-fiction essays on women and feminist movement throughout history. I have a Bachelors Degree in History and also in Humanistic Studies with an emphasis in Ancient and Medieval Research.

Aside from good romance, good coffee and history, I am also passionate about art and enjoy reading about the lives of artists through the ages.
