Biography
Marianne LaCroix [1] (aka Marie Bellevaux [2], Marie Belle [3]) has had a passion for romance since reading Gone With the Wind when she was a high school sophomore. Voracious reading eventually spawned another passion—writing. For years, Marie would go to work as a nurse in her local hospital, and then she’d run home and unwind by writing, escaping into a world of handsome heroes, and the women who love them. Her private escape has evolved from a full time hobby into a promising career. She’s had several recognitions for her writing including a Romantic Times Magazine Reviewer Choice nomination.
Marianne is an active member in Romance Writers of America and holds a B.A. in English Literature. She lives in southwest Georgia with her husband of thirteen years, their twin toddler daughters, four dogs, a noisy cockatiel, and one demanding cat.
