Though I was born and raised in the second largest state in the US, I lived in a very small town where everyone knew everyone. The hours that weren't spent at the dance studio were spent reading and dreaming of far off lands that I would one day visit and explore. My parents helped feed my insatiable appetite for reading by continually supplying me with books.

My plan was to be a professional dancer, and after making it to New York and performing in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, I realized that though I had a passion for dancing, large cities weren't for me.

On the verge of starting my own dance studio, I got derailed by love. I met my husband, and knew he was the one. It was with the help of my husband that I found my true passion - writing.

Once I delved into writing, I found another love - Scotland. Scotland has a piece of my heart and soul. I've long had a fascination with the ancient land that has pulled me in with its legends and lore of Druids and Fae.

Scotland's mist covered mountains, deep lochs of untold beauty, and forests filled with magic and mystery call to me and my characters who live in Medieval castles. 'Tis the Medieval era where knights were feared and men died for honor, that my heroes and heroines, through trials and tribulations, find neverending love and vanquish evil.

My husband, two young children, three cats, and one long haired Chihuahua still make our home in Texas. I don't mind the heat and humidity either since that's when I hide in my office and write stories set in castles and mysterious places in Scotland where my characters find adventure and love.
