From the official website:

A native of Louisville, KY, I graduated from the Kentucky Baptist Hospital School of Nursing in 1976 and then went on to earn a BSN from Indiana University in 1989. Horse crazy from the time I knew what a horse was, my family moved to rural Indiana in 1989. Since then, I've managed to accumulate a number of animal friends, but am currently holding at two horses, five cats, and one crazy little dog named Peaches! I have been married to the same wonderful man (aka Budley) for more than thirty years, and we have two grown sons, Mike & Sam. I've been working full-time as a critical care nurse for more than thirty years, and though this has been an exciting and rewarding career, I am so ready for a change!

As a writer, I find that any fantasy you have can come true if you just write it down. I've been keeping my friends entertained with my books for a number of years, and self-published a book in 2006, If You Could Read My Mind, writing as Samantha R. Michaels. Slave was the first of my books to be published with Sourcebooks Casablanca, and has since been followed by Warrior, Rogue, Outcast, Fugitive, and Hero. Coming June 2011 will be Virgin, followed by Stud in February 2012. I'm currently contracted for one more Cat Star Chronicles book after that, but I don't have a title for it yet.

I'm a member of the Romance Writers of America and the local Indiana chapter, and right now, I'm working with some of my INRWA friends on a series of erotic short story anthologies which will be published by Siren beginning May 20, 2011. We call ourselves The Sextet and we're having so much fun with this, it ought to be illegal!
My other interests include cooking, gardening, singing and guitar playing. I'm still hurt that The Eagles got back together without me!
