GINA CASTILLO was born while her father was in the military. The family moved back to Texas a few months after her birth and Texas is her home. She loves the small-town feel. Gina went into the medical field as her first career, but in 2000 she followed her passion for language arts and entered the teaching profession. She met her husband David, a lawyer, in 2004. They had a magical wedding in a castle in 2007. One year after their marriage, their family of three grew to a family of six. Now, they work together to raise their seven boys, who inspired the stories she tells.
