More About the Author

I live in New England now but I was born in New York City and lived in or near the city most of my life. It's where I met my husband--I was fifteen and a senior in high school! He was at both my high school and college graduations. We have a lot of shared, wonderful history.

After we married, I taught elementary school for a while. Then I settled into being a wife and mother but the desire to write was always there. I'd written short stories when I was little--the first, which I illustrated myself, I wrote when I was seven! I never really stopped writing and one day I looked in the mirror and said, "Okay, Sandra, you've always wanted to be a published writer. Maybe it's time you did something about it."

I'd always been interested in the complex ways in which men and women relate to each so it seemed natural to start writing romance fiction. I wrote short stories and sold several of them. Finally, I took a deep breath, sat down and wrote my very first novel. To my amazement and joy, Harlequin Presents bought it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Extremely Erotic and Sensual Love Story, April 15, 2006

By

This review is from: Captive In His Bed (Harlequin Presents) (Mass Market Paperback)

What an incredible storyteller Sandra Marton is and Captive in His Bed is an excellent example of Sandra's brilliance. This is the second in her Knight Brother triology and is one very hot and sensual read. From the very beginning the reader learns what a strong and rugged man Matthew Knight is, plus sexy, dangerous, handsome....all of the qualities of a strong Alpha male. He is sent to Columbia to find a woman, Mia.....the beautiful and seductive woman on the run. Their story is explosive and one that sizzles from the very beginning. However, have a box of Kleenex near by as it's also sensitive and tender.
