Having been accused all my life of having way too much imagination, I'm putting that imagination to good use writing my stories! I love my large family, and cooking, and feeding my family. My expansive extended family has always shared a great love of reading, and we shared many, many books across all genres. I write like I read: whatever catches my fancy and to be honest, whatever my extremely vocal and opinionated characters dictate I should write about! All my books, wherever the setting, contain elements of romance, mystery, fantasy, and good versus evil. I write all levels of heat, from tender first love to steamy stories for grown-ups only. Since a young age, I've had a consuming interest in a variety of crafts and hobbies, and a great many of those make appearances in my books in some form or other. As long as I can remember, I've enjoyed being outdoors; hiking, boating, fishing, biking, playing in a creek or in the ocean, and a recently discovered love of kayaking. Critters of all shapes and sizes, whether real or imaginary, play a huge part in my life and my books, especially dogs and horses and dragons, with an occasional hummingbird or little green lizard thrown in. My parents and grandparents instilled a love of plants and gardening in me, and I've worked in the same garden center for close to three decades, furthering that love of green and growing things.
