Born and raised in the mountains of West Virginia, Nancy Herkness's passion for writing romance began the day her grandmother gave her a Georgette Heyer novel. After graduating from Princeton University with honors in English literature and creative writing, she had successful careers in retail, computer programming, and marketing before finally returning to her first love: writing. The author of A Bridge to Love, Shower of Stars, and Music of the Night, Herkness was named one of 2003's Best Up and Coming Authors in the Affaire de Coeur's readers' poll. She is also a winner of the Golden Leaf Award, the Aspen Gold Award, and the Write Touch Readers' Award. She currently resides in New Jersey with her husband and two mismatched dogs.
“Like slipping into a warm bath, Herkness eases readers into her
story. She’s spot on when it comes to tugging at the heartstrings,
and the vibrant setting of West Virginia mountains is perfect for
characters who will haunt readers long after the last page is
turned. Animal lovers will especially be delighted.” —RT Book

“This story is real and can penetrate a soul because so many
difficulties are shared in depth of the many facets of
relationships. The characters’ lives have the potential for some
great stories of their own should the author ever want to continue
these characters in future stories.” —Coffee Time Romance (5 stars)
