About

Marilyn lives with her husband in the northwest U.S., not too far from the Canadian border, and believes the long, cold winters are perfect “writing weather.” She looks forward to the winter holidays, and doesn’t mind the snow, except when she needs to drive in it.

Although she imagines travelling to distant, romantic shores, she’s a country girl at heart, and her favorite place is home with her family.

She loves music, flowers, sci-fi movies, and taking daily walks with Precious, her rescued dog.

Marilyn writes erotic romance because it lets her explore love, passion, and sex, through the lens of different characters and settings. It’s also a way to keep her imagination kindled during the September to March “cold snap.”

She started writing sexy stories “just for fun” seven years ago. Today, she’ll laughingly admit she’s absolutely obsessed with creating hard-core dominant heroes and happily-ever-after endings.

She appreciates comfy shoes, doesn’t need many high heels, but owns a pair of snowshoes in case her hubby wants to hike into their tiny, off-the-grid, “summer cabin” in the winter. She adores that there are no mosquitoes or hornets when it’s snowy.
