I've been telling stories since I was three and discovered I got into less trouble when I provided creative explanations for the chaos that swirled around me. It took me almost forty years to start writing my stories down. I now lives in a comfortably messy house on Chicago's North Shore. Contributing to the chaos are her husband, four children, a new puppy and a psychotic house rabbit.

I've published two novels. My contemporary romance, ROOM FOR LOVE (Treble Heart Books), won the 2002 Treble Heart Award (best contemporary romance) and The Lories 2002 Best Overall Award (short contemporary romance). My YA romance, UNDER A BEAR MOON (Hard Shell Word Factory), won the EPPIE 2000 for best YA eBook and the 2000 Dream Realm Award, children's category. My short stories have appeared in the romance genre publications, The Breathless Moment and Lovers Knot Magazine.
