About the author
Meet Joan Wahl
Joan Wahl writes warm, witty contemporary romance set in Nashville, in the kind of places she has walked through herself.
Joan grew up in Western New York, minutes away from the world-famous Chautauqua Institution, where she has attended lectures, concerts, operas and the ballet. As a teenager she dreamed of studying piano at Juilliard before attending Mercyhurst College in Erie, Pennsylvania.
She loves to travel, and her favorite destinations are Nashville, Tennessee, the rugged coast of Maine and New York City at Christmastime. She loves browsing bookstores and libraries, visiting museums, touring historic homes and getting lost trying to find a remote lighthouse. She has met many favorite authors, including Clive Cussler, and hopes to tour the Cussler Museum in Colorado someday.
When she is not writing or reading, she is having monster truck races with her grandson or cheering for the Buffalo Bills. Her husband makes every day feel like a honeymoon, so writing a love story came naturally.
