OverviewRecipe for a Boston Classic Cocktail: one part finance geek, one part starving actor, two shots of stubborn and a healthy squeeze of passion. Shake well and serve in a vintage glass. When Kate Bishop walks into Boston's famous Bull and Finch pub, all she's looking for is one guy from her investment firm that she can trust to have her back-a tall order. With a salesman at her side, maybe stage fright won't paralyze her completely when she presents her meticulously prepared research to clients. And maybe she can save her job. Romance is the last thing on her to-do list, but a meet-cute with a Shakespeare-quoting bartender has her speculating on the value of diversifying her life portfolio. Will Talbot is not a fan of the slick financiers who cram into his bar after each day's closing bell. With their calls for Harvey Wallbangers and their Herm�s ties, they're all the same. Except for a certain beautiful, buttoned-up brunette with fire in her eyes and a storm in her heart. They're totally wrong for each other. He should be focusing on his upcoming audition, not coaching Kate on how to act like she's a bona fide member of the Gordon Gekko club. Problem is, they can't seem to stay away from each other. The course of true love never did run smooth, but in this 1980's sweet-and-sexy rom-com, returns on love can't be measured on the S&P 500.

A stage and screen actor in Boston in the eighties and nineties, she started recording books in 1999 after moving to Los Angeles. Having resettled in her home state of North Carolina, she shares a house with her family and probably too many pets, where she continues to narrate audiobooks as well as make up stories.
