Cheryl Howe's Bio

Cheryl Howe spent her childhood summers locked away in her room reading Gone With the Wind, Wicked Loving Lies, and anything by Victoria Holt, while ignoring her mother's pleas to go outside and play. After stints at Louisiana Tech, LSU, and an unforgettable summer in Italy, she earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in English from the University of Texas at Arlington. After graduation, she settled into a series of mediocre jobs that had nothing to do with her love of books. Then finally one day she decided to stop daydreaming her life away and start living it. She began her first novel with no idea what she was getting herself into. When she's not writing, Cheryl loves to Rollerblade at the beach, hike, and take long walks with her shepherd mix. She currently lives in Southern California with her husband, dog, and Miss Kitty.
