Terry Odell



Terry was born in Los Angeles and after living over 3 decades in Florida,  now makes her home in Colorado.

She loves getting into the minds of her characters, turning them loose in tight spots and seeing what they do. Too often, they surprise her.
She is an active member of the Romance Writers of America, the Kiss of Death chapter of RWA as well as Mystery Writers of America. When she's not writing, she's probably reading
