HISTORICAL SERENADE—SEVEN TALES OF ROMANCE
The Authors (Cont.)

land, New York. In the past she‘s enjoyed competing as a figure skater, dancing profession-
ally as a belly dancer, and singing as a classically-trained vocalist and soloist and participat-
ing in Medieval/Renaissance re-enactment groups. Is there any wonder she writes stories
with Medieval and Renaissance themes?

oped a passion for historical romances through her love of reading, history and genealogy.
