About this Author
Beth Harbison grew up in Potomac, Maryland, in the shadow of Washington, D.C. Apart from the occasional irritation at being held up in traffic by a presidential motorcade, she has remained fairly uninvolved in the politics that define her home town.

Instead, she shopped.

And she has the credit card bills to prove it.

Shoe Addicts Anonymous, in 2007, was her first mainstream novel after writing four cookbooks and twenty-two Silhouette Romances.

Currently, she lives in Maryland with her husband, two children and three dogs, and enjoys playing Scrabulous and watching terrible reality TV shows.
