I started reading romance when I was 12 and discovered my grandmother’s secret stash of steamy bodice rippers (hello, Johanna Lindsey and Kathleen E. Woodiwiss). That led to a deep love of romance books—not just historical romance, but contemporary, romantic suspense, gothic … If it has a happily-ever-after after, I’m there for it.

My dream is for my books to bring readers as much joy and comfort as romances have brought me.

I live in East Tennessee with my husband (a real-life age-gap romance) and three fur-children: our dog, Bella, and the two cats who boss us around, Desmond and Molly.
