This week we welcomed Perrie Patterson to the author spotlight. While Perrie's five published novels feature romance as the primary genre, she also crosses into other categories within her writing, including historical fiction, young adult, and new adult genres. In her day-to-day life, Perrie and her husband, Jeff, have raised two grown children. Although they have flown the nest, Perrie keeps herself busy. She is a keen volunteer of a number of different societies and groups in her community, and is the host of The Talking Atlanta Podcast. Perrie’s goals are to write intriguing stories—the type of story you can’t put down, ones which seem to take on a life of their own, with stories that crawl off the pages and into your heart.
