LeeAnn Bonds

LeeAnn grew up as an Air Force brat and then grew some more during ten years as an Army wife. Ready for a different adventure, LeeAnn and husband Zack headed for the woods to raise their family in rural north Idaho. There LeeAnn grew exponentially by being a pastor's wife, learning to write, and homeschooling the kids all the way into college. The kids are grown, and she and her husband have flown the empty nest and returned to the wandering life. They currently live on Saipan, in the Northern Mariana Islands, where she's learning to love heat and humidity to a greater degree than she ever thought possible.

LeeAnn has been writing since she discovered that telling stories was as much fun as reading them. She’s written innumerable obscure online pieces, and has had published one short story and several magazine articles. She writes to encourage women to persevere through difficulties, and live a joyful life of faith, hope and love.

Montana Rising:Wordplay is her first novel (not counting the inevitable first first novel which will likely never escape from her hard drive).

The second Montana Rising book, Scrabble Weather, launches at the end of March!
