M. Kate Quinn

M. Kate Quinn draws on her quirky sense of humor, hopelessly romantic nature, highly developed sense of family and friendship, and her love for a good story while writing her novels. She is particularly proud of her Perennials Series that began with Summer Iris (released by The Wild Rose Press in July, 2010) and the heroines that she says possess the same hopes, fears, and ultimately, the courage that lives in all of us.

M. Kate Quinn, a life-long native of New Jersey, born and raised in the Cedar Knolls section of Hanover Township, now makes her home near the beach in Ocean County. She and her husband (the man she attributes to her belief in soul mates) have a combined total of six--yes, that’s six--children and two beautiful granddaughters. The king of their castle is a magnificent, apricot-colored Siberian cat named Sammy.
