Award-winning, best-selling author Metsy Hingle says writing romance novels seemed a perfect career choice for her since she grew up in one of the world's most romantic cities -- New Orleans. "I'm a true romantic who believes there's nothing more powerful or empowering than the love between aman and a woman. That's why I enjoy writing about people who face life's challenges and triumph with laughter and love."

Dubbed by Romantic Times as " . . . destined to be a major voice in series romance," Metsy has gone on to make that prediction a reality, with her books frequently appearing on national bestseller lists and garnering awards--among them the R.W.A.'s prestigious Golden Heart Award, and both aW.I.S.H. Award and a nomination for Best Silhouette Desire by Romantic Times Magazine.

Known for creating powerful, passionate stories and characters, Metsy's books are among readers' favorites, and with good reason claims New YorkTimes best-selling author Sandra Brown who says, "Metsy Hingle delivers hot sex, humor and heart . . . everything a reader could wish for!"

As much as Metsy loves being an author, it's her role as wife and mother that she holds most dear. Recently she turned in her business suits and fast-paced life in the hotel and public relations arena to pursue writingfull time. According to Metsy one of the greatest joys of being an author is hearing from fans. She would love to hear from you. E-mail Metsy atmetsy@metsyhingle.com, or write to Metsy at P.O.
