| I was born in Alabama, where my parents lived on my paternal grandmother's ancestral home place, a farm that is still owned by a member of the family. My upbringing was divided between Tuscumbia & Barton, Alabama and Chattanooga, Tennessee. I graduated high school from Chattanooga Central and then attended college at the University of North Alabama. I married young and traveled briefly with my husband, who served in the navy in the mid-to-late sixties. After my husband decided against a military career, we settled back in our home state of Alabama and started a family. I was “in my element” as a stay-at-home mother and I can truthfully say that I've loved every moment of motherhood. I enjoyed my children as babies, as toddlers, grade-schoolers, teenagers and now as adults.
Our children are both adults with successful lives and good marriages. I always wanted four children and when my two kids married fabulous people, I finally got that second daughter and son. We have two handsome, brilliant grandsons, who have brought tremendous joy into our growing-older world, as has our beautiful and brilliant granddaughter, a toddler who is helping us, once again, see the world through a child’s eyes. I sold my fist book in 1989 and it was released as a July 1990 Silhouette Desire. YANKEE LOVER was set in my hometown of Tuscumbia, Alabama, during the annual Helen Keller Festival. Since that first sale, I've written over seventy books for Silhouette and Kensington. My first mainstream romantic suspense, AFTER DARK, was released in December 2000 under the Zebra imprint for Kensington. In the past twentyyears, I've gone from being one of the “new kids on the block” to one of the “old pros.”
