Growing up in Europe and seeing castles on a daily basis made me sure I wanted to live back in the Middle Ages. Since that wasn’t likely to happen, being a child of the 20th century, the next best thing I could try to do was to write about this enthralling period in history. Having studied medieval history in college, I loved doing the research about how people really lived and spoke and dreamed and loved, and so TORCH IN THE FOREST came to be. Of course, being a writer, I am not stuck in one era, so I do fiddle around in other time periods. I am also the author of Bantam Sweet Dreams #226, ALOHA LOVE. When I’m not writing, I’m reading, or traveling. I love hearing from readers and am happy to do book club conference calls!
