In the Spotlight – Loni Lynne

Loni Lynne 5 p12756ta105474_25Today’s guest is the delightful Loni Lynne! She’s the author of a brand new Paranormal Romance, Wanted: One Ghost. The premise of this book sounds so wonderful, I can’t wait to get the book and read it!

About Loni Lynne

Loni Lynne believes fate determines our lives and we are just along for the ride.  Holding on tight, she’s managed an eclectic life of moving all over the country in her youth, seeing sights and places her dreams still take her to every now and again. Writing stories since she was thirteen and dreaming of actually writing a book since that time, fate took over, giving her a chance to find material and experiences to write about.

Upon graduating high school, she served her country in the United States Navy where she met her United States Army hero/husband in his hometown of Annapolis, Maryland. After being stationed in Hawaii for their first four years together, they returned to settle in Maryland where they still live, Happily Ever After with their two princesses, who prefer to play with dragons instead of running from them.

Four years ago, as a birthday gift, her husband gave her a portable hard drive, a membership to Romance Writers of America, and the challenge to have a completed manuscript by her next birthday.  She did it and then some.  Now, she can’t stop writing.
