I'm a Southern California gal, born and raised. I have a passion for writing meaningful, romantic stories about men and women who discover each other and find everlasting love. I read my first romance novel as a young girl, it was titled "The Silver Kiss" by Lynn Erickson. I still have the book and I've been hooked on romance novels ever since. How can you go wrong with a happily ever after ending? Well, my desire to read romantic stories grew into wanting to write my own. I imagined characters and their unique challenges and would jot down ideas, but that's as far as I got because I met, and married, my own real life hero. I put a writing career on hold to pursue a small manufacturing business with my husband. I learned a lot about making aerospace parts, driving a forklift, and bookkeeping, but my heart still yearned to write.

 I take delight in baking chocolate chip cookies for family and friends and cooking experimental dinners for my husband who, thankfully, is willing to be my guinea pig. Most of the time I prefer to be outdoors, spending time in the garden during the spring and summer and in the winter do several outside activities with my dogs. I also make an effort to watch the sun set every evening. I love animals. All kinds, but especially my dogs. They bring much joy to my life! At present I'm working on writing my next adventure! I find inspiration from my wonderful husband, and our beloved Labrador Retrievers.
