About the Author
Linda Lael Miller
Born in Spokane, Washington, and raised in the Pacific Northwest, Linda Lael Miller started writing at age 10, when a teacher praised her for composing a particularly imaginative story. She’s been at it ever since. It was through a correspondence course in short stories that she began to sell to magazines such as “True Confessions” and “True Romance.” She placed over 30 stories with these publications, but her great dream was to write books.
She sold her first two novels in 1983 to Pocket Books, for their Tapestry line, neatly shooting down the common misconception that a writer must have an agent to sell. A writer needs a good book to sell, and the finest agent in the world cannot place a bad one. The first novel, Fletcher’s Woman, made a bestseller list and was selected as a finalist in a national contest. The moral: if you believe in your book, don’t give up. Linda’s gone on to sell many more books to that same publisher, and to others as well, including a brand new vampire romance series to Berkley.
A New York Times bestseller, Linda’s also been honored to receive the Silver Pen award from “Affaire de Coeur” and has been a finalist in the Romance Writers of America Golden Medallion award many times. She’s claimed the Romantic Times’ Most Sensual Historical award many times as well.
Linda lives with her daughter, Wendy, in Port Orchard, Washington. Avidly interested in history, Linda collects art, antiques, reproductions of old toys (specializing in Noah’s Arks) and the signatures of famous historical figures—she has Robert E. Lee’s and Ulysses S. Grant’s, among others. She also loves to travel, and raises roses in her Port Orchard garden.
