About this author

Diane Lynn McGyver lives on a small farm in Nova Scotia, Canada where she raises Cotswold sheep, Toggenburg goats and heritage breed chickens. She’s been writing since she could hold a pencil. Her work has appeared in hundreds of publications since 1998.

Her publication credits include two novels—Pockets of Wildflowers (Romance) and Shadows in the Stone (Fantasy)—and five short stories—Mutated Blood Lines, Dancing in the Shine, The Man Who Reads Obituaries, Miss Tuttle’s Lemon Tarts and the first in the Castle Keepers Tales, Destiny Governed their Lives. Her holiday romance, Twistmas – The Season for Love, is scheduled for December 2012.


Destiny Governed their Lives is a short story starring Catriona Wheatcroft, the sorceress in Shadows in the Stone fantasy novel.

“I won’t have you calling me Miss Tuttle. That’s what the doc calls me. And the lady at the bank. One takes my temperature and the other my money. Friends don’t take anything—they give.”
Diane Lynn McGyver, Miss Tuttle's Lemon Tarts

“A radiant glow enveloped Alaura. Soft eruptions of various shades of effervescent green danced in the air and frolicked in the locks of her dark blonde hair. Whispers of yellows and blues revealed themselves near the skin, kissing the air with each leap.”
