Elsa Bayly

Elsa is a country girl at heart and lives with her husband on a small acreage in the central valley of California. They are hosts to a continuous parade of various animals that find their way to them.

When not writing romance Elsa can be found working with an extensive collection of house plants or pruning over thirty rose bushes. Raised in her parent's mom and pop restaurant, she can't bear to see a holiday or weekend pass without tables heaped with food for her children and grandchildren to gather around and partake of.

She loves to read, her favorites being suspense, mystery, spies or historic tales set in the early days of the west and most of all loves romance in her stories.

Life has taken her through huge cultural changes beginning with a prairie childhood in Kansas to the metropolitan east coast to the high plains of Colorado and beautiful picturesque New Mexico before landing her in California.
