M. C. Wilkinson grew up in Colorado with a view of the majestic Rocky Mountains from her bedroom window. She moved to Idaho her last year of high school. During an adventurous Fourth of July trip, she met the love of her life on the highway playing leapfrog, and it's been a joyride ever since. Two children and many dreams later, she woke up and started writing When the Bough Breaks on her phone.
