ABOUT THE AUTHOR

I'm a Southern girl who was raised in Alabama. I joined the US Army when I was seventeen and spent four years as a Counter-Intelligence/German Linguist. I was stationed in San Francisco, Texas, Arizona, and Germany and ultimately, I owe seeing other parts of the world to my military experience. I met the love of my life on my senior trip to Panama City Beach, FL, just before I joined the military, and we sent love letters across the ocean for many years.


While getting my BA in Marketing at Troy University in 1989, I was crowned Miss Capitol City and competed for the title of Miss Alabama. From combat boots to high heels and evening gowns was quite a culture shock, but I loved it! I got married after graduation and decided to be a stay-at-home mom to raise our baby girl, SaVanna.


My passion is photography, piano, guitar, Boston terriers, and writing, but in my free time, you'll mostly find me on a pontoon boat floating down the river, sitting on a beach watching the sunset, or loving on my family.
