Biography

Samantha Sommersby has been writing romance since 2001. She was first published in 2005 and also writes under the pen name of Lara Williams. Her background in the medical and specifically the psychiatric field is apparent in her work and allows her to bring a unique perspective to characters and stories. Sam loves to spend the day in her office creating - spinning rich tales, and weaving together interesting plots. Her aim is to create a hero that will literally sweep a reader off her feet.


She currently live in Southern California with her husband of sixteen years, her twelve year old son, and a cocker spaniel named Buck. Sam's husband is a Social Worker who works with abused children. He's an avid sailer who loves to surf and you'll find bits of him in every hero that she's ever written. She describes her son as wonderfully sensitive with a sarcastic sense of humor. He plays the piano, composes his own music, is a competitive fencer, and worships video games.


Like most writers, she'll tell you that she's always desperately trying to balance her "real life" work, family, and writing. She still works a full-time job, writing in the wee hours of the morning or on weekends. When she does manage to set aside some "play" time for herself, then you'll most likely find her reading a book, at the movies, or out wine tasting (She collects California Cabernets).


To date she's been publishing with Linden Bay Romance[1] and is extremely pleased to be a part of their family of authors.
