Samantha James
<p>It was Samantha James's love of reading as a child that steered her toward a writing career. Among her favorites in those days were the Trixie Belden and Cherry Ames series of books. She still loves a blend of mystery and romance, and, of course, a happily-ever-after ending. The award-winning, <em>New York Times</em> and <em>USA Today</em> bestselling author of many romances and one novella, her books have ranged from medieval to Regency.</p>
