Bethany Michaels grew up in a small Indiana farm town where her love of reading and writing took root...as well as her voracious romance novel habit. She earned a BA in English with the thought of going into publishing. After graduation, when Indiana proved not to be a hotbed of the publishing industry, she took a job in transportation and logistics, and remains in that field today. She is married with four small children and recently relocated to Tennessee, where she loves the parks and scenery but misses the winter snow...sometimes.
