Hi, I'm Sam! I have been a captive of the YA genre since before I'd even reached the age threshold, and I'm pretty certain I will always be a YA lifer. The hopeless romantic in me still enjoys the way young love and first love pull at my heartstrings. 

I am a full-time elementary and middle-school principal, and I never tire of young people and the dynamic, inpsiration, and growth they provide me. I mainly write YA Romance and Fantasy novels, as well as some short stories. 

I live in California with my amazing husband, two beautiful children, and Alaskan Malamute who looks much more like a direwolf ;)
