Christine Monson

Born Judith Christin Clevinger, the author gained a love for romantic adventure tales during her childhood in a grim West Virginia mining town. Her career as a writer was jumpstarted by her self-identification with the character of Joan Wilder in the movie "Romancing the Stone." Soon afterward, her debut novel "Stormfire" was published, and Monson became well-known in the genre for her extreme storylines and harsh heroes. However, after six novels she began to feel ambivalent about her romances and began to research a novel on the Holy Grail. It was never published. Suffering from depression, she committed suicide in Greeley, Colorado on Sept. 11, 2003. Her survivors included ex-husband Jon Monson and daughter Jennifer.

Christine Sparks

Christine Sparks was born in England. She wanted to be a writer all her life, and began by working on a British women's magazine. As a features writer, she gained a wide variety of experience. She interviewed some of the world's most attractive and interesting men, including Warren Beatty, Richard Chamberlain, Charlton Heston, Sir Roger Moore, Sir Alec Guiness. Single life was so enjoyable that Christine put marriage, and even romance, on the back burner, while she went about the world having a great time. Then, while on vacation in Venice, she met Mr. Fiorotto, a tall, dark handsome Venetian artist, who changed all her ideas in a moment, and proposed on the second day. Three months later they were married. Her friends said a whirlwind romance would never last, but they celebrated their 25 anniversary, they are still married, still happy and in love. After 13 years on the magazine Christine decided that it was now or never if she was ever going to write that novel. So she wrote "Legacy of Fire" which became a Silhouette Special Edition, followed by another, "Enchantment in Venice", published in 1984 as Lucy Gordon. Then she did something crazy gave up her job. Since then she has concentrated entirely on writing romances for Mills & Boon, Harlequin and Silhouette and has written over 75 books. Her settings have been European and her heroes mainly English or Italian. Christine now claims to be an expert on one particular subject. Italian men are the most romantic in the world. They are also the best cooks. A few years ago Christine and her husband returned to Venice and lived there for a couple of years. This proved the perfect base for exploring the rest of Italy, and she has given many of her books Italian settings: Venice (of course), Rome, Florence, Milan, Sicily, Tuscany. She has also used the Rhine in Germany for "Song of the Lorelei", for which she won her first RITA Award, in 1991. Her second RITA came in 1998, with "His Brother's Child", set in Rome. Eventually Christine and her husband returned to England, where they now live. She write and he paints, they have no children, but have a cat and a dog.
