As a teen Amy read horror and fantasy as fast as she could get her hands on it. She'd never met a Dean Koontz book she didn't like.

Until one day at the bookstore she stumbled across a pretty blue cover complete with a bare-chested, sword-wielding Highlander. That Highlander and his heroine showed her the magic of a happily-ever-after and she's never looked back.

She's read and written her way from Kentucky to Arizona and California then back to Kentucky which she and her family now call home.

Who says characters with a dark side can't find love?
