Elaine Charton was born in Boston, Massachusetts, the only 
girl in a family of six. A voracious reader from an early 
age, she should have known it was only a matter of time 
before she began writing her own stories. Elaine met her 
husband on a blind date. When he proposed seven weeks 
later, he promised life with him would never be dull and 
boring. Married for twenty years, she can honestly say he 
has kept his word.
She recently moved to Arizona with her husband and their 
two psychotic cats, Scarlet and Ashley. Elaine and her 
husband have no children of their own. However, they do 
have 13 nieces and nephews who give her lots of ideas for 
future stories.
