As a child, Beverly Long used to take a flashlight to bed so that she could hide under the covers and read. Once a teenager, more often than not the books she chose were romance novels. Now she gets to keep the light on as long as she wants and there's always a romance novel on her nightstand. With both a bachelor's and a master's degree in business and more than twenty years of experience as a human resources director, she now enjoys the opportunity to write her own stories. She considers her books to be great successes if they compel the reader to stay up way past his or her bedtime. Beverly loves to hear from readers. Visit her website or Like her on Facebook.
