About Me

I write erotic science fiction, paranormal and contemporary romances for Resplendence Publishing, Siren, Logical Lust, Evernight Publishing, and Cobblestone Press. In my other life, I write nonfiction. If you ever find me sitting in one place, it’s because I’m reading or writing.

I attended the University of Iowa as a creative writing major. Later I returned to school and became a Registered Nurse. You know, gotta make a buck! I am proud to admit that I was born and raised in Iowa, but I’ve lived, camped, hiked, traveled all over the United States and Israel. I am married with three children, a new puppy, two cats, two birds and two very lucky koi.

I like nothing better than to be out in the fresh air with my boys - hubby and dog! I’m a sports fanatic and I love riding horses - used to own three. Ten years ago, I lost my wonderful cutting mare to laminitis. I haven’t found a horse that can replace her. She was my best friend ever.

I come from a long line of amazing cooks - one of my great-great grandmothers was a chef to the Hungarian Royal Family - a fun day often involves creating a perfect meal. So I am all about food and fantasy and obsessive exercise - so I can eat my favorite food, chocolate!
