Pushed out of his own start-up company, Tom McKittrick is ready to lick his wounds in private at the rural family estate he's inherited. But he isn't prepared for his Garden of Eden to have a built-in Eve-a reclusive naturalist with a long-term lease on the caretaker's cottage, a knack for gardening, and an incredibly beautiful face.
April Fairchild is not about to let Tom McKittrick order her out of the home that has been her cozy retreat from the world. But she has to feel sorry for him-the corporate bigwig is clearly out of his element in, well, the elements. April knows she can teach this hunky guy a thing or two about how to relax.

Following a career in engineering, Suzanne has returned to her first love of writing and literature. Born in Southern California, Suzanne, along with her husband and a loving tuxedo cat, make their home in the Santa Cruz Mountains. Suzanne is also a jewelry designer, and her wirework has been shown at various arts and wine events throughout the county. When she's not writing, Suzanne loves to garden.
Her books have been published by Kensington Books and Turquoise Morning Press. Sierra Bride is Suzanne's first published historical and is set near the eastern slope of the Sierras where she spent an enjoyable part of her childhood collecting rocks and riding horses. Late Harvest, a story about winemaking, was a two-time Golden Heart finalist for Romance Writers of America. In Love and War is set in Suzanne's favorite part of Ireland, County Cork and tells of the decades-old conflict between Irish Republicans and the Free State. Taming Rowan draws on Suzanne's career in engineering and is set in another favored location, Northern England.
