About the Author
Mrs. Dacey retired at the age of 73 after working forty years in the field of nursing. Three years before her retirement, she took a creative writing course, and praise from her teacher proved that writing could be her future. In actuality, writing filled her senior years and has remained her primary interest ever since. She has written many novels: all romance, fictional, centered on love, including the difficulties that one faces living in this world and attempting to overcome obstacles. She writes not of her experiences but enjoys creating fictional characters/places and to offer non fictional thoughts that might give the reader food for thought. Her only credentials are having known love and having given much thought to what we call living.
