About

Laurie Germaine is an award-winning New England native who once dreamed of raising her family in Europe and avoided anything that had to do with the American West (apologies to a large chunk of the USA). Today, she's a walking testimony to God’s sense of humor, since she lives quite happily in Montana with her husband of twenty-six years. They have two adult daughters who currently live in the warmer half of the USA.

When she's not immersed in writing or continuing to hone important life skills as a wife & mom (each season presents new challenges!), you can find her knitting anything from bags to toys to stockings, crafting for the home, or dreaming of the next white Christmas--yes, even in June. 😊
