Author Bio:

Lauralee Bliss has always liked to dream big dreams. Part of that dream was writing, and her career began with small creative works as a teen just for fun. After several years of hard work, the dream of publishing was realized in 1997 with the publication of her first romance novel, Mountaintop, through Barbour Publishing. Since then she's had over 30 books published, both historical and contemporary. Lauralee’s desire is that readers will come away with both an entertaining story and a lesson that ministers to the heart. Lauralee is also an avid hiker, having completed the Appalachian Trail twice, the Florida Trail, the Long Trail of Vermont, and the Colorado Trail among many others, logging over 10,000 miles. She loves to speak about her hiking. Her hiking adventure series can be found on Amazon - Mountains, Madness, and Miracles - 4000 Miles Along the Appalachian Trail, and Gators, Guts, and Glory - Adventures Along the Florida Trail
