"Mr. Living History"--that's what divorcee Lexi Feinstein dubbed Nate Wilcox from the moment she almost ran over him and his horse on her first day of work at Winstead National Park. Wilcox represents everything distasteful to her. Because he's a re-enactor, she is sorely reminded of her father's "wannabe" acting career, which provides painful memories of her childhood. Nate still struggles with the death of his wife in an auto accident, in which he was the driver. His son, Justin, was cripped as a result. Nate has no intention of bringing another woman into his life, especially not a "city gal." But once their paths collide on the asphalt parking lot, the stage is set for decisons. At the focal point of those decisions is the heart of a 10-year-old boy. I have written most of my life. While still a pre-schooler, I once got in trouble for scribbling in the back of a book. I continued writing throughout school, working on high school and college newspapers, and eventually getting a BA in journalism and creative writing. I have worked as a newspaper writer and editor, as well as a variety of other jobs, such as a substitute teacher, college instructor, and even an Avon saleslady. Currently I hold two master degrees and am a Licensed Professional Counseler and Licensed Addictions Counselor, and have worked in a private prison. Currently I work for a community health clinic as a Behavioral Health Therapist. I love to read, favorites being Tony Hillerman, Henning Mankill and Patrick Taylor, as well as Steve Barry. I love music, current favorites being Celtic Thunder and Josh Groban. My pride and joy are my four children and five grandchildren. I reside in Southeast Colorado, where I continue to write. My current burning desire is a trip to Ireland. Special thank you to my sister, Sandy, for encouraging me to follow her path to Smashwords.
