Laurie Alice Eakes is a bestselling and award-winning author who has always had a passion for storytelling. From a young age, she would lie in bed and tell herself stories, sometimes sharing them with others. This early interest in narrative would eventually lead to a successful career as a published author. Eakes' first book, Family Guardian, won the National Readers Choice Award for Best Regency in 2007, and she has since sold numerous books to various publishers, including Baker/Revell and Barbour Publishing.\n \n Eakes' work is known for its vivid characters and engaging plotlines. Romantic Times writes that she has a "charming way of making her novels come to life without being over the top." Her books have been praised for their historical accuracy and attention to detail, making readers feel as if they have been transported to another time and place. In addition to her work as an author, Eakes also teaches online writing courses and enjoys a speaking ministry that has taken her across the country.\n \n Despite her success, Eakes remains humble and dedicated to her craft. She continues to write and publish books, and her work continues to be celebrated by readers and critics alike. In recent years, she has even relocated to a colder climate because of her love for snow and icy lake water. When she's not writing or enjoying the cold, Eakes can be found reading, visiting museums, and taking long walks with her husband. She is also active on her website, where readers can learn more about her and her work.
