Mariah Stewart is the New York Times, Publishers Weekly, Wall Street Journal, and USA Today bestselling author of almost fifty books. She's the mother of two fabulous daughters and the grandmother of six granddarlings (and yes, they’re fabulous too!). In past lives, she's been a teacher and an insurance executive, but knows she's found the perfect job: sitting in her sunny office in old sweats and flip flops, making up stories and the characters who live them. Life could not be sweeter.

A native of Hightstown, New Jersey, she makes her home amidst the rolling hills of Chester County, Pennsylvania, where she savors country life, tends her gardens, and works on her next novel.
