I came out of the womb telling stories, and as soon as I discovered that spelling words could be arranged into stories, I became a writer at the ripe age of six. Publication took longer, a lot longer. Romance and romantic suspense are my favorite stories to read, so it stands to reason, that's what I'd ben drawn to writing. What could be more compelling than a couple falling in love while saving the world ... or at least, their little corner of it?I divide my time between Colorado and the Texas Gulf coast, doing my best to avoid winter and extreme heat. My house is ruled by Queen Cara, the cat, and the most loyal subject in the household is Toby, a Lhasa Apso. He was rescued eleven years ago from a puppy mill, and he's the most faithful companion a writer could ask for.
