C. K. Gold comes from the hazy hills of Appalachian country. She moved to New England to pursue her own romance story and wound up settling down. She left the corporate compliance life for freelancing in 2015, and now spends much of her time writing, researching, and revising with her partner. She is a passionate cook and spends an inordinate amount of time on culinary science experiments. She keeps two cats, a postage stamp of a vegetable garden, and a suspiciously large collection of PlayStation 2 games in her home near Narragansett Bay.
