About me:
Stewie: You know, that novel you've been writing?
Karen got interested in romance when her Valentino-loving grandmother gave her The Sheik to read. Thanks to her grandmother’s early influence, Karen began writing contemporary romances in 1990 when the books she wanted to read could not be found on the shelves. She’s now sold eleven books to Harlequin/Silhouette and is embarking on a trek into single title. Karen is originally from the conservative state of Vermont. It surprised her that she loves writing hot, sexy heroes and the strong women who tame them. But beneath all that conservatism, beats the heart of a true rebel! After 25 years in the Northern Virginia area, she has moved to Raleigh and is loving the city living with a rural feel. Her oldest daughter has flown the coop and she’s doing her best to finish raising her youngest daughter, each a rebel in their own right. Between her roles as an administrative assistant for a university dean and single working mother, it's an adventure finding time to get in a few hours of writing in amidst the mundane chores and reigning chaos of everyday life. She’s received numerous honors such as the HOLT Medallion for her first book, Jennifer’s Outlaw, made Waldenbooks bestseller list twice in 2003, nominated for a Romantic Times Reviewer’s Choice Award in 2004 and a double finalist in the National Reader’s Choice Award in 2005. She is a member of Romance Writer’s of America, Washington Romance Writers, The Heart of Carolina Romance Writers, Kiss of Death Chapter and Ninc.
