Leah B. Eskine grew up in small southern towns in Louisiana and Texas and moved to New Orleans in her twenties. Her first novel CC'S Road Home was inspired by the high school students she taught. She lives with her best friend and husband, Paul, and their two rescue poodles. When she's not writing, Leah enjoys country music and sixties rock, walking the dogs at dusk, lunch at neighborhood restaurants, and reading - a lot. Visit Leah at www.leaheskine.com.
