The Duke's Indiscretion (Avon Romantic Treasure)
I've always loved to write, but after my first attempt at a novel (nine chapters of Plastic City, the story of underwater-dwelling orphans in the twenty-third century that I wrotein the sixth grade), I took some time to get my bachelor'sdegree and to try my hand at other careers before I returnedto my first passion: creative writing. After lots and lots of perseverance, hard work, and a bit of very good luck,My Darling Carolinewent on to win the Romance Writers of America's RITA® Award for Best First Book of 1998.I live in Texas with my family, exploring history as Idelve into the hearts of my characters.
