Brash

Overview: Since 1999, when Margo Maguire's first book, The Bride of Windermere, was released, she has sold more than five novels to Harlequin -- all historicals. She is writing full-time now, and enjoying the flexibility in her schedule -- something she didn't have while nursing. With three teenagers at home, and lots of family activities, she likes to be available for whatever comes up. And she likes the fact that she's indulging her artistic side once again.
