He's her first chance at love. She's his last. Free spirit Aphra Porter never thought Isaac Lightfoot would remember the letter she wrote to him years before. But by some miracle, he does. Now a successful Web site designer in her thirties, Aphra meets the man whose writing talents she's always idolized-an encounter that leaves her spinning. No longer is Isaac a distant image, but a flesh and blood man who looks at her like no one has looked at her before. A critically acclaimed author and Vietnam war hero, Isaac is one tough bear of a man. Faced with the physical and emotional scars of war, a relationship with a daunting age difference, and an ex-wife bent on tearing Aphra from his life, he's about to learn that leaving the past behind and building a new life can be the toughest battle of all.

I graduated with honors from East Tennessee State University with a Bachelor's Degree in English and worked there for 13 years before becoming a full-time novelist.
I think of myself as an Adventurer Poet. I live near a fabulous network of mountain trails. Part of me is happiest when I'm hiking or scrambling up rocks and through laurel thickets in search of waterfalls. The other part is happiest when I'm at my computer spinning tales or at my piano composing or playing music -- I'm a classically-trained pianist and compose my own songs and instrumental pieces.
My creative life and my adventuring life are equally important. It's about balance. I can't imagine one without the other.
My husband and I have four sweet, spoiled-rotten cats. While I'm working on my writing projects, it's rare that there isn't at least one cat either on my lap or on my computer, often a cat on each.
