Gail Ranstrom always enjoyed a good tale of danger, adventure, action and romance of long ago times and distant lands. When the youngest of her three children began school, she put pen to paper and wrote her first novel, which is thankfully still under her bed. Her next efforts were more successful and she has been writing ever since as the award winning author of eight novels and two novellas. She loves to hear from readers, and you can visit her at: http://gailranstrom.comAs soon as Dorothy Elbury learned to read she was continually reprimanded for “always having her nose in a book”. Years later Dorothy still spent all her free time reading until, one day, finding herself with nothing to read and time hanging heavy on her hands, she started to scribble the first paragraphs of what would eventually become her first of many Mills & Boon romance novels. Dorothy currently lives in Lincolnshire, England, with her husband of over fifty years.
