A.C. Arthur was born and raised in Baltimore, Maryland, where she currently lives with her husband and three children. An active imagination and a love for reading encouraged her to begin writing in high school and she hasn't stopped since. Her debut novel Object of His Desire was written when a picture of an Italian villa sparked the idea of an African-American/Italian hero. Determined to bring a new edge to romance, she continues to develop intriguing plots, sensual love scenes, racy characters, and fresh dialogue-thus keeping the readers on their toes!
Kate Douglas has always loved the power of stories, especially romances. When it's done right, a good book draws a reader into the author's imaginary world, into the lives of people created from imagination and stardust, through the turmoil, the twists and turns of the story's plot, until reaching that ever elusive--but always promised--happy ending.
When it works, it's pure gold.
Married for over forty years to her very own hero, Kate is mother to two amazing adults and "Dabba" to six perfect grandchildren. Kate gives credit for much of her success to the fantastic cadre of generous and talented authors who have helped her over the years, and she's a firm believer in the philosophy of "paying it forward."
