AUTHOR'S BIO:
Teresa Morgan's favorite things are books, history, and puppies, not necessarily in that order. In 1994, after following her engineer husband's career around the country, driving more miles through more states, and being stalked by more natural disasters than she cares to remember, she returned to the Pacific Northwest. Teresa admits that she much prefers a minor "rip the roof off your house" windstorm to a hurricane, tornado or flood.
Years ago, in the days of carbon paper and eraser shields, she was secretary to a manager and twenty or so engineers and scientists. Now, she's wife to one engineer, mom to her grown-up son and daughter and proud Grandma to the most beautiful grand-daughter in the world, Lauren. Currently, she's owned by two scheming cocker spaniels devious enough to work for the CIA.
Though so far she's written only contemporary novels, she loves history so much that, years ago, she took the huge paperback WINDS OF WAR by Herman Wouk on her honeymoon. She loves early 20th Century history, and has a particular interest in World War II.
Though her third book, tentatively titled The Gift, is a contemporary, the characters, their conflicts and secrets are based in events that happened during the Battle of Britian. As Teresa works to draw the men and women of the 1920's, 1930's, and 1940's into the year 2002, she feels compelled to understand not just who they were and what they did, but why.
