But…Aunt Tilly? You can’t relinquish ownership of your blue hatbox quite yet. You must make one more trip to Amanda’s beach house. As soon as you feel strong enough, I will bring you here to lie on this beach and watch my Amanda play in the sand.
Until then—dearest Tilly, groovy Auntie Tilly, clever Aunt Tilly.
With Love,
Amanda.
A word about the author...
I was born and raised in Arizona. Outside of Arizona, my travels had gone only as far as California, Nevada, and New Mexico until I married a man doing a stint in the Army. If the Army offered nothing else, we at least had the opportunity to see a good part of the world. And we found we liked moving around.
Our frequent moves continued into our civilian life. Our gypsy lifestyle has finally landed us in the northern prairies of Arizona. We’re transitioning from city people to country folk. We share our rambling farmhouse with our son the farmer, his wife, my granddaughter, and three dogs. Together, we’ve embraced an age-old lifestyle that has been mostly lost in the United States—multiple generations living under one roof, who share the workload, follow their individual dreams, and reap the benefits of combined talents.
Although I didn’t start out to write romance, I’ve found all good stories have to involve complicated human relationships. I’ve also learned, no matter a person’s age, a new discovery is right around every corner. Whether humorous or serious, straight contemporary or mystery, all my books revolve around those two facts.
