Sue Swift

A former trial attorney, Sue Swift retired from the law in favor of writing romance and mystery. Since 1999, she's sold four manuscripts. Her first book won the Beacon Award for Best Historical Romance of 2000. Her second book is a RITA finalist for Best Traditional Romance. She's active in the Romance Writers of America, serving as President of her local chapter in 2001. She also lectures to authors' groups on various topics about writing. A self-proclaimed jock, Sue is probably the only Silhouette author to own both a second-degree black belt in karate and a pair of ice hockey skates. She and her real- live hero of a husband live in Fair Oaks, California. She loves to hear from readers, especially through her website at www.sue-swift.com. Her mailing address is P.O. Box 241, Citrus Heights, CA 95611-0241. Her current release is The Ranger and the Rescue, from Silhouette Books. Her next book, In the Sheikh's Arms, will be available in March 2003.
