More About the Author

Kathy Holmes was born in Los Angeles but grew up in nearby Orange County halfway between Disneyland and the beach.

Tantalized by the tropics since Adam Troy set sail on the Kon Tiki in James A. Michener's "Adventures in Paradise," she's traveled to tropical destinations such as Hawaii, Florida, the Caribbean, Mexico, and Asia Pacific. Eventually, she moved to Florida where she wrote and secured representation for her first published novel, REAL WOMEN WEAR RED. She also wrote for Walt Disney World, fulfilling two dreams at once.

Her second novel, THE TOM JONES CLUB, published by Bookstrand Mainstream Romance, begins its journey in Orlando and finds its way to Las Vegas. She credits her step dad for the inspiration because, like a character out of Mad Men trying to quit smoking, he drove the family to Las Vegas to keep his hands busy playing craps. Kathy was seven at the time and remembers doing her homework in the family station wagon while being mesmerized by the neon lights.

Las Vegas is also the setting for her short story VIVA LAS VEGAS, included in the anthology A SHAKER OF MARGARITAS: HOT FLASH MOMMAS, published by Mozark Press.
