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 TONI'S REVIEW, January 7, 2002

This review is from: Cole Cameron'S Revenge (Red Hot Revenge) (Harlequin Presents) (Paperback)

I want to share this great review with you. It was written by Toni Kroening, and she's given me permission to share it.

Toni said:
"Cole Cameron's Revenge" came in the mail after Christmas, giving me a nudge to keep my dreams alive. My head has been filled with interest rates and taxes lately.
Your book did the impossible. It enabled me to get away from it all and still remember what is really important.

As a reader, you kept me captivated and it was hard to put down. I was able to return to whatever scene I left without losing the story. That's talent.
As a writer, you impressed me again. I loved the prologue and the set up. You promised me a story with enough meat and came through at the end. Underneath all the anger and the horrible words they said to one another, it boiled down to the love they have. It was superbly written."

This is a wonderful book, full of depth and heart. The story is compelling and the characters and their emotions are beautifully drawn. I highly recommend this to any reader looking for something more than a read-it-and-forget-about-it experience. This one will linger with you.

This review is from: Cole Cameron'S Revenge (Red Hot Revenge) (Harlequin Presents) (Paperback)

Overall this was a pretty good story. I felt that the characters were well drawn and had good reasons for the choices that they made throughout the story. Cole was very mean to Faith when he returned but the reader knew deep down he still cared about her. For example: when he discovered that his brother died in an accident he asked about her and was genuinely concerned about whether or not she survived. He is extremely jealous about what or whom she has been with over the years as well. Apparently this is important in these books.

What bothered me the most is the fact that he decided to take revenge upon her because she married his brother. From his perspective it seems reasonable that he would want to seek to hurt her the way she had inadvertently hurt him over the years by marrying his brother, Ted. However, before Cole ran away like he did he told his brother to take care of her. So his brother did! Cole never even told Faith that he was leaving. He needed to get out of town and he wanted to protect her so he didn't speak up when he could have. Yet Cole has conveniently forgotten that he told his brother to take care of Faith and he can only think of seeking revenge on the gold digger!! I wanted him to seek revenge on the liar who caused him to leave town as well as his accursed father!! I can't believe that he would be so eager to believe the people of that small town when they didn't seem to care too much about him before, but I excused that because all signs pointed to them telling the truth. However, I would expect him to be even madder once he discovers the truth after Faith has run away with his nephew and he searches her out. Given that he was so eager to punish Faith for marrying his brother, one would think he would be royally peeved that she sought to deny him something else. After all he was willing to punish her for a supposed wrong when later it is a guaranteed wrong, yet he doesn't punish her at all and really doesn't say anything about it. He is just so happy to have her back in his life. If there had been a little more anger on his part I would have given the story five stars. Definite angst here!
