was born in Southern
California. She has wanted to write practically since she learned to read. Early dreams of
becoming a zoologist and writing books about her adventures in Africa were crushed after
she viewed a National Geographic special on the world's most poisonous snakes -- of which
99% seemed to be native to Africa. After that, and in conjunction with her first viewing
of the movie Star Wars, her interest turned to the much less dangerous activity of writing
fiction. She dabbled unsuccessfully in romantic fantasy for a year or two after
graduating with a degree in English from the University of California, Irvine, until a
delight in Regency Romances led her to write one for fun. After several encouraging
rejections, she snared the interest of the world's best and most patient literary agent,
who helped her re-work the manuscript. This ultimately led to the publication of her first
novel, The Black Duke's Prize, from Avon Books in the Spring of
1995. It was later translated into German and published as Lady
Meines Herzens in the My Lady series of historical romances in 1998.
Another Regency, Angel's Devil followed in the
Fall. Angel's Devil was nominated in the Regency
of the Year category of the "Romantic Times" Reviewers Choice Award.
Contrary to opinion, she was not the reason Avon Books ceased its Regency division, but when that happened she was encouraged to try her hand at historical romance. Still being infatuated with the humor and wit of the Regency period, she decided to attempt another manuscript set in that time. Lady Rogue, a March 1997 release from Avon, was the result. A second Historical, Stolen Kisses, set in 1820, at the tale end of the Regency period, was released in September 1997. By Love Undone another Regency historical was released in July 1998. By Love Undone's sequel, Taming Rafe, was released in April 1999.
Suzanne is known for her humorous characters and witty dialogue. Still single, she resides in Anaheim, California with her Cairn terrier, Katie (named by her sisters after the heroine of The Black Duke's Prize), and her steadily growing collection of Star Wars action figures and space ships.
She recently holidayed at the world-famous Hotel
del Coronado in San Diego, California, which included a day at the San Diego Zoo.
