More About the Author
Bestselling Seattle-born author Katherine Stone set about plotting her life's journey at a very young age. At age five she knew she hoped to become a doctor. Then, after writing her first short story at age 11, she realized that she'd love to be a writer, too.
In pursuit of that youthful dream, Katherine attended Stanford University, where she completed her premed requirements while majoring in English. She received her M.D. from the University of Washington. Following her internal medicine residency in San Francisco, she accepted a fellowship in infectious diseases in Los Angeles.
What remains one of the world's largest outbreaks of Legionnaires' disease coincided with her fellowship, which gave her the opportunity to write and lecture on this mysterious new disease. But it was not all work and no play. There was also romance in L.A. It was there (during a spinal tap!) that she met her future husband, physician and novelist Jack Chase.
While she had accomplished the first half of her young-life goals, Katherine never really got around to the second part--being a writer--until Jack bought her a word processor and urged her to "Just do it." The result? Bestselling books in the distinctive Katherine Stone style: a marriage of lyrical prose, evocative emotion and, above all, romance.
"There's nothing wrong with incurable romanticism," the physician asserts. "I love writing about nice people, who are giving life their best shot despite the sometimes monumental obstacles I place in their paths and who discover, despite those obstacles, the splendor and power of love."
Although Katherine has hung up her stethoscope for the moment and is writing full-time at her home near Seattle, her medical background is often evident in her books. "I very much enjoy sharing my passion for medicine--its drama, its emotion and yes, its science--with my readers."
The author of 21 novels, including Twins, Bel Air, Love Songs, and Pearl Moon, Katherine's books have been translated into 20 languages and sold worldwide. She is in the midst of converting all her novels into e-book formats (and thinking about her next book!)

Incredible!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Twins (Mass Market Paperback)
If you can find this book, do so. It is simply one of the best books I've ever read. Never have I been on the "edge of my seat" before, wondering (and dreading) who the killer might be, not literally. And although some books have affected me emotionally, no book has ever brought tears to my eyes as did this novel. This happened while reading about the childhood of the twins, Charles and Jason Sinclair.Between wondering who the killer was and weeping over the twins childhood, I was an emotional wreck!! This due to the enormous talent of Katherine Stone. (I know, some of her newer books weren't that great.) But this one had it all; brotherly and sisterly love, romance, heartache, and mystery. The love stories were absolutely wonderful; the love scenes went into a little more detail here than in some of KS's later books. This book also shows how basic misunderstandings, assumptions, and noncommunication can alter the lives of people, sometimes drastically. Usually when I finish a novel I immediately start another, but the characters in TWINS left such a lasting impression, I found I simply couldn't concentrate on ANYTHING for quite some time.

This review is from: Twins (Kindle Edition)
I enjoyed this novel while sitting outside tanning over the weekend. It was a compelling read and I liked the plot twists. Evocative emotion kept me turning pages. I must say this Kindle edition had the most typos of any Kindle book I have read so far. Still recommend the book and would like to see more Katherine Stone e-books.

EXCELLENT!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Twins (Mass Market Paperback)
Honestly, I did not expect the book to be that good but it was! It was not your ordinary "twins" book. It had a strong plot, the suspense building up with each page. I especially like the Nick-Brooke meeting. Also, the twins' relationship, though strained still showed trust and love.
