Dana Hawkins is a caffeine-fueled writer of contemporary romance stories. She hopes to spread a bit of sparkle in a sometimes gray world while writing love stories with heart, heat, and enough humor to keep the reader smiling throughout the story. Originally from central Minnesota, Dana has claimed Seattle, Washington, as her home for the last twenty years. As a mom of three humans and one Saint Bernard, she spends her days chasing after kids (or dogs), neglecting her last remaining lucky bamboo plant, and searching for the perfect coffee mug.
