Isabel Sharpe

Isabel was born April 8, 1961, two days after she first announced to her mother she was on the way--apparently she couldn't quite decide how to proceed. After growing up in that bastion of preppydom, Princeton, New Jersey, she got her B.A. in music from Yale in 1983 and a Masters in Vocal Performance from Boston University in 1990. Educated, but still unsure how to proceed, she began a career in fundraising for which she was extremely unsuited. In 1994 the birth of her first child happily terminated that venture, but left her a somewhat shell-shocked full-time mom, needing something of her own to do. Still lost, in fact. After some soul-searching, she realized what she enjoyed most was making up stories and making people laugh. So she took the plunge into romantic comedy and discovered she loved writing to distraction (as in "too distracted to clean the house"). Six months after her second son was born in 1998, she sold her first book to Duets, going on to sell five more Duets, a Blaze and a Temptation in the next year and a half--and beginning to think she finally found her way. Isabel lives in Wisconsin with her sons and a paunchy cat named Sinbad. She is a member of Wisconsin Romance Writers of America and was a 1998 Golden Heart Finalist. Isabel spends her very few leisure hours reading, cooking and working out so she can eat what she cooks.
