Bio: Kaye Bennett was born on 17 November 1957 in Geelong, Victoria, Australia. She reads a great deal, and although she will read anything - mystery, thrillers and horror - romance is her favorite. To survive a series of mind-numbing jobs, she turned to writing. When she won a local short story contest, suddenly her name was in the newspaper, and she dreamed of becoming a full-time writer. She has always had an interest in history, and she started writing historical romances as Deborah Miles for Mills & Boon (Harlequin), she also wrote as Lilly Sommers and Kaye Dobbie, before writing as Sara Bennett historical romances and as Sara Mackenzie paranormal romances.

Kaye lives in an old house in an old gold rush town in the state of Victoria, Australia. She is married to an accountant and they have two children who are growing up all too quickly. The household is ruled by three cats, who all arrived without an invitation and decided to stay, and a dog who believes it's a person. In between writing and driving her children to and fro, she enjoys spending time in her garden. She is particularly fond of her collection of old world roses - they have such wonderful names! She tries to keep the house and garden tidy, but rarely succeeds—she'd rather be writing or reading.
