K. R. (Karen) Martin has always loved stories, whether reading or writing them. Her pas-sion for stories led her to a BA in History with a minor in English. She's unapologetically a princess at heart, even if she loves a good rapier as much as a formal gown. Deeply roman-tic, she loves that she gets to live with her own prince charming, and her best friend, in Texas along with their cat and two children.
