Life has many twists and turns, and things don't always turn out the way we hope. In my reading and my writing, I like strong women and compelling stories with mystery and suspense.
Like most romance writers, I am a romantic at heart. But I believe romance takes many forms, so in my heart it’s the classic Romanticism of the late 18th and early 19th centuries, which was as much about life and emotional growth as it was about romance.
I have many creative interests that include painting, quilting, and glass art, as well as being a writer.
When I’m not traveling to Costa Rica or Mexico, I live on California’s Redwood Coast with my husband and two kitties. We have a wonderful ocean view, and when the fog comes in—as it always does—I’m usually either curled up with a good book, or busy writing, painting, or hovering around a warm kiln making fused glass jewelry.
