Katherine Garbera is the national best-selling author of more than 50 books. Writing is the chief focus of her time after her family and the only thing she likes more than working on her own books is reading other authors. She is a frequent speaker at conferences and loves the opportunity to talk about writing with anyone who'll listen.
Garbera started making up stories for her own benefit when she was on a competitive swim team in high school. Though she went to State and usually medaled at swim meets, Katherine says her heart wasn't in swimming but rather in the stories she created as she swam laps at practice.
She worked for The Walt Disney World Company for 15 years and did everything from being a hostess on It’s a Small World, to saving swimmers at the Grand Floridian Resort, to touring around VIPs such as Jack Valenti at the Disney-MGM Studios and being a production page on the New Mickey Mouse Club--yes, it might be possible that Britney, Justine and Christina owe her a nod of thanks for keeping all those kids who had to go to the bathroom from interrupting their performances.
Today, she's blogging about her March release, which is the middle book of her Miami Nights series. You can learn more about her and her books on her website. Take it away, Katherine!
I'm one of those people who just wants everyone to get along. I'm the family peacekeeper and am not afraid to compromise to ensure we have good family gatherings.My characters in SEDUCING HIS OPPOSITION are the same. They will do whatever they have to for family. For Selena Gonzalez this means facing down the ghosts of her past to return to her home. She doesn't count on falling for Justin Stern and as they battle their attraction and each other in the boardroom they slowly realize that they both aren't willing to compromise where each other are concerned.
What about you? Is it your way or the highway? Or are you a peace keeper who always compromises?
P.S. One lucky commenter will win a copy of Seducing His Opposition!
