Yes, her son named his gorgeous Yorkshire Terrier after the main character in A Promise of Fireflies.

Susan is the author of the Whisper of the Pines series which include Christmas Under the Tuscan Stars, (Book 5) Outside the Lines (Book 4) The Other Side of Broken, (Book 3,) A Thousand Butterfly Wishes (Book 2) A Promise of Fireflies, (Book 1), In the Shadow of Fate - the companion book to A Promise of Fireflies, and is among the contributors of Dream Believe Write, a unique writing journal for fiction writers, published by Four Carat Press. Susan is currently working on Book #6 in the Whisper of the Pines series, On Wings of Dragonflies, due in 2021.
"Don't Worry Dad, I Won't Panic", the story of a young boy's adventure when a snowstorm turns vicious and incapacitates his father, was featured in Focus on the Family's Clubhouse magazine for children. The story is read each year in Susan's husband's 5th grade class.
Though her first published story was for the YA genre, Susan's heart lies in the powerful character-driven stories of contemporary women's fiction and romance. She believes love is ageless and her stories reflect this by incorporating the passion and fervor of young love, the sensuality and compassion of enduring love and the devotion and reverence of the once-in-a-lifetime love.
A current member of Romance Writers of America, Susan served on the Board as Secretary for the Northern Arizona RWA chapter for five years. She is also a member of Women's Fiction Writers Association, RWA-WF, Arizona Professional Writers, and mentors others interested in creative writing.
There are three words Susan feels should not be a part of any writer’s vocabulary...woulda, coulda, shoulda...and is a firm believer you should never stray from your dreams until you’ve exhausted every angle possible. And when you have, figure out another...anything is possible if you believe. Take your passion...and make it happen.
