Biography

A native Texan, Alison sold the first of her over fifty published works live on the “Isn’t It Romantic?” episode of CBS 48 Hours. The resulting book, Call Me, was a Romantic Times finalist for Best First Series Book. If there’s a better career to be had, she doesn’t want to know about it, as she’s quite happy writing in the backyard of her Texas home where she lives with her petroleum geologist husband, three rescue dogs, one a Hurricane Katrina survivor, and a colony of feral cats, battling the heat each year to raise a bumper crop of tomatoes and jalapeno peppers.

Alison's book, A Long, Hard Ride, part of Harlequin's 60th Anniversary celebration, was nominated for an RT Reviewer's Choice Award for Best Harlequin Blaze of 2009. Striptease, a 2003 release from Harlequin Blaze and part of her popular gIRL-gEAR series, was also an RT Reviewer's Choice Award nominee.

Her 2005 Kensington Brava release, The Beach Alibi, was a nominee for the national Quill Awards, sponsored by Reed Business Information. Alison is also the author of The Complete Idiot's Guide to Writing Erotic Romance, and her 2009 novel, No Limits, was a Cosmopolitan Magazine Red Hot Read. She has been blogging since 2002, and is active on Twitter and Facebook.
