AKA Denise Hampton What can I say? I’m single and over sixty, I write and I farm on eight acres of slowly improving red earth (it originally looked like Mars had exploded!) on Oak Creek in northern Arizona. I started with chickens, then there were turkeys and Jersey milk cows. But with livestock came the predators: coyotes, bald eagles, black hawks, mountain lions, and, worst of all, raccoons. Dang those nasty creatures! They kill just because they can; think dogs with opposable thumbs. (Five chickens in one night–they reached in through the chain link and killed the birds with no expectation of being able to eat them.) They are the reason I keep livestock guardian dogs. There's the massive Polar Bear, a 135 pound Hungarian Kuvasz, Radha, the svelte and sleek 90 pound Anatolian Shepherd and her new chew toy, Rupert who is some sort of terrier mix and small enough to walk under her belly. As for what my dogs guard, it's my growing herd of Dorper Sheep, a South African breed that (supposedly) doesn’t need to be sheared and gains all their weight on grass alone. I've also fallen in love with pigs, which are just dogs with snouts. Oh, how those rapscallions make me laugh!

Ellen Fein

Ellen Fein and Sherrie Schneider met in New York City circa 1990 when they were in their mid-twenties and became fast friends. Ellen had an accounting degree and was studying for her Masters in Social Work and Sherrie was a journalist. Both were career women who were told "you can do anything you want" in business and romance. As their friendship grew, so did their search for love as they often shared dating stories with each other. Seeing the need for basic, common sense guidance, they organized their thoughts and in 1995 released THE RULES, which gave women newfound confidence in their search for love. They lecture regularly and have coached millions of women worldwide. Source: About the Author

She balked at her wedding date not once, but twice, causing her future mother-in-law to throw up her hands in despair. Fortunately Ellen did muster up the courage to take her vows, and has been fabulously happy ever since.With her husband, Ellen shares a passion for history and the outdoors. The two of them can usually be found poking around ghost towns, as well as camping and hiking in the gorgeous mountains of the southwestern United States. And, of course, Ellen is also busy pursuing her dream career. Writing Harlequin romances.
