CAROL STEPHENSON

Carol is an attorney by day and a writer by night. She learned to love books at an early age; however, the die was cast when Carol's mother introduced her to the heart-stopping gothic romances when she was eleven. Although Carol dabbled with writing off and on, she finally took her dream in hand and joined Florida Romance Writers and Romance Writers of America in order to learn her craft. She loves exploring emotionally-drawn characters and their reactions to whatever life throws at them. When not practicing law or writing, Carol loves to travel, take photographs or work on home-makeover projects. She plays trivia weekly with friends and is a wine enthusiast. A South Floridian who is used to doing the hurricane drill, she lives with her beloved Shih Tzu, Maddie, who often makes guest appearances on Carol's blog and Facebook page Visit Carol's website at www.carolstephenson.com.
