Author Information

Lisa Plaice was born, raised and still lives in southern Ontario, Canada. She loves her family, sewing projects that are sometimes inappropriate, and making people laugh. When she isn't working at her day job, reading, writing or sewing, then she is probably singing (badly) to her Grand-dogger Stella. Her goal when writing this novel was to help readers escape and live in the charming town of Haven for a time, and laugh, cry and ultimately cheer on Evie to find her happy ending. Barbara L. B. Storey is a writer, photographer, and digital artist. She loves to write, to read, to travel, and is also crazy about baseball. She was born and now lives in Canada, but is a former resident of New York City and misses it very much. She's also particularly fond of certain book series - The Lord of the Rings and Outlander in particular - of poetry, historical fiction, mysteries and thrillers, biographies, and history of almost any kind, but particularly art and political. She has lived several different, interesting lives in both North America and Europe, but through them all, one thing has remained true: creating is essential. Writing or art - as long as she is making something and telling a story, she is happy.
