As a teenager, she began to spend many hours reading novels, and writing her own thoughts in journals and in story form.

Through the years, she has continued to develop the idea and this book is the outcome of all her years of hard work. She graduated from her family's home school in 1993. Cara currently resides in Connecticut with her husband and children.
