Mona Risk
Self-publishing my novels were the best things I ever did for my publishing career. In 2012, my three medical romances, Babies in the BargainRight Name, Wrong Man, and No More Lies landed on the Amazon bestseller list for contemporary romance and medical romance. I was walking on cloud nine when my name was posted on Amazon.com in the 100 most Popular Authors in Romance list for several months.
Filled with energy and enthusiasm, I hid in my writing cave and wrote for days and nights, stopping only to walk on the beach or exercise at the gym.
My books have garnered: Top Picks; Outstanding Read; Sweetheart of the Week; Best Book of the Week at various reviewers, and received two mentions in Publisher’s Weekly, and won several awards, from Best Contemporary Romance of the Year at READERS FAVORITE with two Gold Medals, to EPPIE award finalist and Best Romance Novel of the Year at Preditors & Editors Readers Poll.
 I will continue to write and read while traveling and discovering unchartered territories and fresh inspiration for interesting stories and new settings.

Pepper Phillips
I had breast cancer in 2009. From diagnosis to the end of chemo and radiation, took a year. I had problems with the treatment phase, developing a stomach ulcer, and needing a new treatment regimen. But I got through it. Like my heroine, I can do this, became my mantra.
One out of every eight women will get breast cancer. Alarming figures. One out of eight!
Get your breast exam yearly. From one year to the next, I was diagnosed with a cancer that was aggressive. If I’d waited another year, it might have been too late. During my treatment, I learned about a writer friend of mine who died of breast cancer. Don’t be the next victim. Get your exam!

About the Author
 

 While growing up, S.M. would travel the roads around her house while imagining she was somewhere else. Her imagination would take her everywhere, making the long hot summer days seem shorter throughout her fantasies. At the age of twelve, she decided to write her first book. Filled mostly with dialog, she filled up one-hundred pages, front and back. After taking the book downstairs to show her mom, and persuading her to buy her more paper, she excitedly ran back to her room. As she barreled through the door, S.M. tripped over items left on her floor, and her papers came raining down in her room. Discouraged, she stood there in tears, picking up her papers and throwing them in the trash. Her work had no organization, no numbers on her pages, just a child fulfilling a joy that she would put down and not pick up again. When she became older, she joined the military for something different. In that time, she was able to explore many places and even met her husband in Iraq. After coming home, she started her family in Arizona and went back to school, earning a Master's degree in Adult Education and Training.
