I'm a Mom to three precious angels, two sons and a daughter. I was born and raised in Ft. Worth, Texas. I love creating worlds and characters my readers can get lost in, with the inner emotions being most important to me. The Wanted: Wives in the West series is my first romance series in the western fiction genre, and it stems from stories I've heard about Hell's Half Acre (Ft. Worth, 1880s) and The Harvey Girls - brave pioneer women who helped settle the West by coming here to work for a specific company. This is my twist on those two historical tales.
