A Gemini in every way, Susan Holloway Scott was born in Washington, D.C., and grew up in northern New Jersey, in an area rich with colonial American history. She graduated from Northern Valley Regional High School, and after a brief sojourn in art school, she realized her talents lay more with studying other people's paintings than in creating her own. She graduated from Brown University with a bachelor's degree in art history, which combined her three great loves -- history, writing, and art -- into one delightful package..

(Neighbors , book 1)
Mary Monroe
"In the small town of Branson, Alabama, the houses are well-tended and the porches tidy. But nothing is as perfect as it seems, including the marriage of Joyce and Odell Watson. Joyce believes she'd found the perfect man in Odell, but secrets and betrayals threaten their happiness, and send ripples throughout their neighborhood. Mary Monroe deftly captures the steamy intrigues of her characters' complicated lives in this Depression-era story that readers will find impossible to put down."
