I was born and raised in Alabama, where my love of books began very early. Before I could even walk, my grandmother was instilling in me a deep appreciation for reading. She and my grandfather were the first to take me to get a library card, and they filled my childhood with stories.

Today, I’m a wife of sixteen years (and still going strong) and a mother of four, and books are still at the heart of our home. My husband and children share my love of reading, and stories continue to be something we return to again and again. When I’m not reading, I’m writing romance and romantasy.

You can almost always find me reading or outside enjoying the sun, tubing down a river or sitting back on the beach.

“No one else sees the world the way you do, so no one else can tell the stories that you have to tell.” -Charles de Lint
