Author
Kemberlee was born and raised on the Monterey Peninsula. In 1997, she couldn't pass up the opportunity to spend six months in Ireland, where she met a man who eventually became her husband. Upon permanently relocating to Ireland, Kemberlee established an Irish travel consultancy, building a reputation as one of Ireland's foremost Irish travel experts. Kemberlee has had the opportunity to study Ireland's history and culture first hand, and has even picked up a cúpla focal . . . a few Irish words. Because of her knowledge of Ireland, she has had the privilege of working with some of the romance industry’s top authors who have set their stories in Ireland, including Deb Stover for "Mulligan Stew" and "Mulligan Magic." Over the years, Kemberlee’s love of Ireland has inspired a number of Irish set stories, including Moondance and The Power of Love. Her stories Tutti-Frutti Blues and Dude Looks Like A Lady are set in mid-1980s Carmel, at a time when eating ice cream on the street and wearing high heels without a permit were against the law! These stories were in an anthology about quirky laws called No Law Against Love. These stories are published through Highland Press. A Piece of My Heart is Kemberlee’s first published novel, and she invites readers to also look for the short story sequel, Constant Craving, which will be available soon. Check Kemberlee's website for excerpts, reviews, awards, and order information. She loves hearing from her readers, so stop by her website and drop her an e-mail. www.kemberlee.com
