Patricia Ann Kay was born on 1937 in a small town in northeastern Ohio, USA, where she raised along with three younger sisters. She considers herself a very lucky woman. The family didn’t have a lot of money, but she says that didn’t matter, because what they did have was worth more than money — a happy home. Her parents had a good marriage and they doted on their four daughters. That upbringing is reflected in the stories she writes. As readers all over the world have discovered, her books are filled with warmth and love of family. Pat has lived in upstate New York, Northern Alabama, Southern California, and Stockholm (Sweden), and since 1969, in Houston, Texas with her husband. She says that no matter where she’s lived, she’s found that people everywhere are the same and want the same things: love and committed relationships. The marriage has three terrific grown children. They currently share their home with two longhaired cats, and a backyard filled with squirrels, birds, and other critters. Her hobbies and other interests include reading, walking for exercise, going to the movies and the theater, swimming, and traveling. In 1990, Pat sold her first romance novel to Silhouette. Since then, more than four million copies of her novels have been published in eighteen different countries. Today, Patricia Kay, alias Ann Patrick and Trisha Alexander, is an USA Today bestselling author of 50 novels of romance and women's fiction.

Wanda Gág

Wanda Hazel Gág was born in New Ulm, Minnesota, the daughter of a painter and photographer. Her parents spoke German in the house and Wanda did not learn to speak English until she went to school. When she was 14 years old, her father died of tuberculosis, and since her mother was also ill, Wanda became the head of the household. She stayed in school until her high school graduation in 1912. She worked as a teacher for a year, and supplemented her work with writing and illustrating for magazines, designing greeting cards and calendars, and painting lampshades. She received a scholarship to study art in St. Paul, and then moved to New York City. She continued to support her six younger siblings. In 1917 she illustrated A Child’s Book of Folk-Lore. In 1923, following a successful exhibition in New York, she left her job and began spending her summers in a country house in Connecticut and later on a farm in New Jersey. She drew and painted during the summer, then worked in New York engaged during the winter. At the time she was known for her lithographs, although today she is better known for her children's books, especially Millions of Cats (1928), for which she received the Newbery Honor Award. Wanda died of lung cancer in 1946 at her home in New Jersey.
