About

I was born in Oakland, California and raised in San Jose until I was a sophomore in high school.  My father then took a job in the San Diego area where he moved our family to Escondido, California.  I finished high school there and went on to Palomar Junior College and then finished at San Diego State University with a degree in Finance.

I now live and write in Park City, UT. I love the story, which inspires me to write. I enjoy travel, the beach, good wine and friends, and my characters. I have three baby pygmy goats that make us laugh.

I got this when it was FREE and after reading a book that I wasn't too pleased with I needed a pick me up and Rock Stars always do that to me.... What I didn't realize is this was going to have me on such an emotional roller coaster and book high for days.... Lisa Loomis Freaking rocks! This started out in the 70's which is completely different than any other book I have read thus far and it grabs you by the balls and doesn't let go. There is a lot of sex, drugs and of course rock n roll. I literally bawled like a freaking baby.... real crocodile tears. I even cried twice more trying to tell my friend Tracie and my daughter about the book... I don't give spoilers but will say this I was pissed several times at the author in between the tears and the snot running from my nose. She was BRILLIANT! I have spread the word and have three reading already. You Rock Kid! ;) I will be on a book high for days!</p>
