Joan Johnston
A former attorney and college professor, Joan Johnston is one of the most popular romance writers in America today, with more than 45 novels to her credit, many of them—like No Longer a Stranger, The Loner, and The Next Mrs. Blackthorne—becoming New York Times bestsellers. Known for her ability to create characters who live and breathe and tear your heart out, she’s also a meticulous researcher: she visited England and Scotland to give her Captive Heart series greater authenticity, and—for her Bitter Creek series—took a course on tracking (humans and animals) from a Deputy Marshall in the big Bend country of West Texas.
