As the daughter of a town marshal, Linda has come home to the western lifestyle that gave birth to one of today's most successful authors.
Now the author of more than 100 novels, the First Lady of the West is glad to be back home, writing contemporary and historical stories that have earned her awards and placements on all the national bestsellers lists.
When she decided to write novels, she endured her share of rejection before she sold FLETCHER'S WOMAN in 1983 to Pocket Books. Since then, Linda has successfully published historicals, contemporaries, paranormals, and thrillers before coming home, in a literal sense, and concentrating on novels with a Western flavor. For her devotion to her craft, the Romance Writers of America awarded her their prestigious Nora Roberts Lifetime Achievement Award in 2007.
