I'm a Southern Minnesota native who adores the beach (whether beside the lake or ocean), live music (rock and roll), and a good book. I'm also a sucker for funny horror movies (think Zombieland, the newer Fright Night), straight up comedies (namely Deadpool and Tommy Boy) and dark thrillers that mess with your head (hello Se7en and Silence of the Lambs). I've also published over 20 romance novels and 7 young adult paranormal.
