Originally from the Chicagoland area, Danielle now resides along Lake Michigan’s beautiful Wisconsin shoreline with her husband, two young sons, and a Labrador puppy. When she’s not writing or reading, she enjoys fueling her creativity with tea, books, and the occasional nature walk in the scenic surroundings of her home.

Combining her love of history with her passion for romance, Danielle brings the past to life through her historical novels and creates heartwarming contemporary tales of love and hope.
A Passion for Stories
Danielle’s love for storytelling began at an early age and has blossomed into a career of writing stories that both entertain and inspire. She shares:
“I love stories of romance and suspense. Two people defying the odds and getting their happily ever after. I also love history—a lot. It’s populated with people who faced insurmountable challenges and changed the world. Historical romance makes these people come alive and takes us to times and places about which we can only dream.”
In addition to her writing, Danielle has been connecting readers with their next favorite books since 2016 through her blog, where she shares book spotlights, author interviews, and other bookish news.
