About Karen Hulene Bartell
 
Born to rolling-stone parents who moved annually, Karen Hulene Bartell's earliest playmates were fictional friends in books. Paperbacks became her portable pals. Ghost stories kept her up at night - reading feverishly. The paranormal was her passion. Wanderlust inherent, she enjoyed traveling, although loathed changing schools. Time-travel novels offered imaginative escape.

An only child, she began her first novel at the age of nine, learning the joy of creating her own happy endings - usually consisting of large families. The day she read Angelique, she entered puberty. Result? She internalized romance.

Avid about romance and trime travel, Karen naturally progressed to authoring paranormal romances.

Karen and her husband Peter are transplanted Texans, living in the Hill Country with four rescued cats and two mustangs.
