I love romance novels! I still remember the first one I read: Cassie, a Sunfire
young adult romance. Quickly followed by Merrie (both written by Vivian
Schurfranz) and then the rest of the Sunfire lineup. I couldn't get enough of
them. I entered the world of adult romance novels when I was 16 by diving
straight into the creme de la creme...that's right The Wolf and the Dove by the
incomparable Ms. Kathleen E. Woodiwiss. (Oooh, Wulfgar you rotten, bodice ripping
pig, I still adore you). That was all it took to start my lifelong devotion to
romance novels.

I started writing my first novel at age 19, finished at age 20, and received my
very first rejection letter (YES! I'm a writer!) later that same year. It was a truly
horrible historical. Since then I have written five more books (all soooo much
better than the first). I currently write historicals, paranormals, and erotics. I am
also writing a children's adventure book with my 11 year old nephew.

I'm the only girl among 4 brothers and 13 male cousins. Yes, I learned very
early the value of playing dirty and striking low. I practice kempo karate, have a
fascination for deadly infectious diseases, and, if given the chance, could eat my
weight in watermelon and turkey bacon.
