She has also written stories for the long-running series The Fortunes of Texas and Montana Mavericks. Her new series Finding Forever in Sandy Shores takes place on the rugged Oregon coast.

Carrie Nichols is a hardy New Englander who traded snow for central AC when she moved to the Deep South. She loves to travel, is addicted to British crime dramas and knows a Seinfeld quote appropriate for every occasion.

Carrie has one tolerant husband, two grown sons and two editorial cats. To her dismay, Carrie's characters, much like her family, often ignore the wisdom and guidance she lovingly offers.
