Alone in the Dark
Cavanaugh Justice Book 8
Silhouette (Intimate Moments)
November 1, 2004
Available in: Paperback, e-Book
She didn't date cops. He didn't date. Heck, the reclusive officer hardly spoke to anyone other than his faithful K-9 companion. So what harm could come from Patience Cavanaugh letting the haunted rebel protect her from a dangerous stalker? She might be a veterinarian, but Patience had enough cop sense from the rest of her family to know that her life was on the line and Brady Coltrane just might be the one to save it. So despite the fact that one look at her brooding bodyguard in blue made her heart trip, certainly she was safer in Brady's embrace than standing here all alone?
Born in West Germany, arrived in the U.S. at four, I began
writing when I was eleven. I began selling many years after
that. Along the way, I acquired a Masters in Shakespearean
Comedy from Queens College in N.Y, a husband and two kids
(in that order)---the dog came later.
My first romance was bought by Second Chance
At Love November of 1981. The road from there to here has a
hundred and thirty-seven more sales to it. I've been
published by Silhouette, Harlequin, Zebra, Harper, Bantam
and Berkeley. I've been fortunate enough to have
received several Rita nominations from the Romance Writers
of America Association over the years, with one win for
Father Goose (in the Traditional Romance Category).
I've also been nominated several times in various
categories by Romantic Times Magazine. I hope to be
found one day---many, many years from now---slumped
over my computer, writing to the last moment. But before
then, I would dearly love to write a successful screenplay.
My goal has always been to entertain.
Entertainment Weekly 2015 named me the fifth most
prolific romance author of all time---and I have since
moved up to the fourth position, having published 296 works.
