She currently resides in Roswell, Georgia, with her husband, Doug, their Labradoodle, Watson, and plenty of material for her next book.

Sands holds a degree in elementary education and has three adult children who are in various stages of finishing college and becoming independent. In her spare time, she enjoys cooking, painting, playing tennis, and staring into space while contemplating her next novel.

In her writing, Sands creates stories about the quirky characters and fascinating relationships that are uniquely Southern. She has a knack for bringing the Southern way of life to life on the page, making her novels a delight for readers who enjoy stories set in the American South. With her warm and engaging writing style, Sands has built a devoted following of readers who eagerly await her next novel.
