About the Author
I grew up near Annapolis, MD, a gem of colonial American architecture which from an early age inspired in me a fascination with history. After majoring in French and History in college, I worked as a business journalist before marrying a naval officer I met (where else? ) at a Navy football game. That began a vagabond period of 12 moves in 15 years which included 2 year postings in Tunis, Tunisia and Oslo, Norway. After my husband left the service, we returned to his home in the Piney Woods of Northeast Texas where we built a reproduction Georgian house, raised our three children and adopted assorted dogs, cats, and transient livestock. We live there still on 24 beautiful acres of pine forest overlooking a small lake. Along with gardening, reading, and swimming, I love creating stories featuring strong heroines and fearless heroes!
