As long as she can remember, Linda Goodnight has loved the power and beauty of words. An avid reader, it wasn't until her children were teenagers that she began to write down the stories swirling in her head. Her first book appeared in 2000, and since then she's written nineteen books for several publishers. She is thrilled to write fiction that carries a message of hope in a sometimes dark world.

A fifth grade teacher, she lives on a small Oklahoma ranch with her husband Gene, a lot of cows, a blue tick hound, a paint horse, and a rat terrier who climbs trees. She is proud to be called Mom by a blended family of six grown children.
