Donna has always been a voracious reader of romance.  But her background in Art History and painting led her to discover a joy in creating her own romantic tales with characters and plots set in picturesque locations throughout history.  Her artistic training only served to enhance her romantic visions of Regency England and strengthened her great passion for the medieval period.   

She resides in sunny Florida with the love of her life, a husband of twenty-seven years, a son and daughter, and two massive German Shepherds.  And while she is presently a Registered Respiratory Therapist for a busy area hospital, she dreams of the day when she can write until her heart’s content. She is truly happiest when she is writing passionate stories featuring beautiful characters, steamy sex scenes, and inevitably happy endings.
