Paula Reed lives in the suburbs of Denver, Colorado with her husband, two school-age children, and dog. She earned her BA in English from the University of Colorado at Boulder and teaches high school English part-time.

She began writing her first novel (unpublished) in the late 1980's, just before she had her first child, but the project was put on hold in the busyness of teaching and parenting. After a tragic shooting incident at the school where she taught, she sought a few hours of escape each day by finally finishing that book. What began as a lark became a much-needed respite from grief. Fast on the heels of that first book came the idea for a second (Into His Arms, her first published work) and a third, and a new passion was born. Three years after the shootings, she took a leave of absence to focus on getting her writing career off the ground. She's back to teaching but still squeezes out time to keep creating happy endings!
