Terri Lyndie
Terri Lyndie was born Terri Dysinger in Clare, Michigan, USA. A lover of stories and reading, she vowed to her fifth grade teacher she would be a writer someday. That same year she received a manual typewriter as a Christmas gift and proceeded to finger peck the keys into worried stubs. She wrote many stories over the years while growing up but although she longed for a writing career she was also practical, and so she graduated from college with a Bachelor's degree in Psychology and a Minor in English. She worked for the State of Michigan as a social worker until her retirement. Free at last to write to her heart's content, she fills her days writing both historical and contemporary romance.

We want to look like we are comfortable with it,” he said. “I don’t need to practice. I know how to kiss,” she assured him. She felt a blush creeping across her cheeks. “I am sure you know how. As do I. But we don’t know how we will kiss each other,” he pointed out. “What difference does it make?” She cast him a doubtful glance. “It makes the difference between being comfortably convincing or nailed as frauds.” His eyes twinkled as he drew her closer. “I don’t think practicing is necessary. We’ll pull it off when the time comes. I know your style. I saw you kissing just last night, remember?” She stepped back nervously as she remembered Francine Stouffer gyrating in Jamie’s arms. His eyes narrowed. “That wasn’t kissing. I was caught off guard. I wasn’t even participating.” She smirked. “It looked like kissing to me.” “I’ll show you the difference,” he notified her in a dangerous tone.
