About Ami LeCoeur

Life has many twists and turns, and things don't always turn out the way we anticipate. In my reading and my writing, I like strong women and compelling stories that include mystery and suspense.

Like most romance writers, I am a romantic at heart. But I believe romance takes many forms, so in my heart it’s the classic Romanticism of the late 18th and early 19th centuries. This era emphasized intense emotion as an authentic source of aesthetic experience, and its stories tended to be heroically oriented. Per Wikipedia, it elevated folk art and ancient custom to something noble, but also considered spontaneity as a desirable characteristic.

I have always been a designer and a creative, and so, have many creative interests that currently include painting, quilting, and glass art, in addition to being a writer and an award winning poet (although the poetry has pretty much been set aside now that I'm writing novels and novellas).

When I’m not traveling to Costa Rica or Mexico, I live on California’s Redwood Coast with my husband and two kitties. We have a wonderful ocean view, and when the fog comes in—as it always does—I’m usually either curled up with a good book, or busy writing, painting, or hovering around a warm kiln making fused glass jewelry.

Determined to change her status by her birthday, a mere six months away, she decides to step outside her comfort zone and find someone to help share the celebration of her journey and her life.

Kris - a blues guitarist who's taken with the lovely woman sitting by herself at the bar. They hit it off, and he invites Sarah to an upcoming gig. She likes his music, and even though she doesn't know him very well, what harm could there be in meeting in a public venue?

Al - the very attractive, very focused attorney who works at the local women's shelter where Sarah volunteers.

With such a good looking advocate on the Board, she’s not disappointed when they are thrown into working more closely together.

Jonathan - Sarah steps back from her earlier goal, focusing once again on her business. While meeting up with a new friend in the bar at a marketing conference, she gets a surprise when she runs into an "old" friend from home.
