About the author(s)

Raised on Hawaii, Malia Martin grew up listening to stories rich in culture and history. From the moment she could read and write she has been doing both in great abundance. She majored in English just so she could read her way through college. And she married a man who loves to cook and can do his own ironing so she could spend every spare moment writing. When the children came she found that the hours she spent pushing swings, watching ballet classes and driving carpools lent themselves marvelously well to plotting.

Malia now lives in California with her three small children and extremely supportive husband. When she is not reading, writing or plotting, she loves to ski, play tennis and take her children to the beach. Visit Malia's website at Malia.com.

Malia Martin is a relative newcomer to historical romance but her debut title, Her Norman Conqueror, was extremely well received in the romance community and was #45 on the Ingram Romance bestseller list and selected by the Detroit Free Press as one of the ten best romances of 1998.
