I grew up in Atlanta, Georgia where I lived some of the same experiences Chanti Evans does in the Langdon Prep series: I attended a prep school where I didn't fit in, my mom was a police detective, and I always wanted to help her solve crimes. Like Chanti, I have lived most of my life around law enforcement types, including my husband, so I have no fear of running out of story ideas.But that's about where the similarities end. I'm not fearless enough to be a detective, although I did give my two cents on some of my mother's cases whether she asked or not (she almost never did). Luckily, writing fiction gives me the chance to play a detective on paper and do one of my favorite things in the universe - tell stories.
