About this author

A wife of 17 years, a mother of 6, a trade school instructor, a business owner, and an author ... all rolled up into one woman with graying hair who's turning 40 in a few months and loving life. Who would have thought?
:) I work for Vatterott College, NorthPark Campus, in St. Louis, MO, teaching Comp II classes, American History, and Sociology. And, I am published through Mockingbird Lane Press. My first book, "A Kiss in the Rain" was released April 23, 2012. My second book, "Lost For Words" is set to be released in mid to late summer, and I have a third novel sitting on my editor's desk as I write this. All so very exciting. I'm on LinkedIn, Facebook, have a website ... www.daciasbooks.com. Excited to find "GoodReads" to be sure!


Why oh why do I forget to blog? Oh why oh why can this be?

In one word ... Life. And cheesy Christmas movies on ABC Family and Hallmark. And making cookies. And NaNoWriMo. And crockpot recipe planning and cooking. And work. And ... well, excuses, excuses.

Do you know what's fun? Apples to Apples with a classroom of Trades people. That's fun! Did it last week--27 of us. Super fun.

Random? Yes. It'... Read more of this blog post »

Timing was an issue for me. The bad guy somehow has time to set up crime scenes, murder his victim, lay traps, and take time for OCD all while the FBI drives to find him. Hmmmm. Sometimes I wonder about books/movies/media creating and discussing vici...more

Emily Okay so it took me less than 24 hours to read A KISS IN THE RAIN. That should tell you a lot... I LOVED IT! I've posted a review a few minutes ago. Thanks again Dacia! I look forward to reading more inspirational romances from you in the future.
