Mindy Lawrence is a frequent quoter of movies, a dark chocolate connoisseur, and a night owl. A lifelong devotee of the romance genre, she adores writing clever, fiercely independent characters who lead with their heads - until love takes over the tender reins of their hearts. Mindy and her husband are American expats living in a quiet village in England. When not dreaming up new romances, Mindy can be found baking muffins with her three darling children or throwing impromptu dance parties in the kitchen.
