Margaret Watson
Once upon a time, there was a little girl who dreamed of writing books just like the ones she loved to read – Nancy Drew, The Black Stallion, Lad, a Dog (that love for animals that made her become a vet), Mary Stewart, Helen MacInnes, Georgette Heyer (the little girl was getting older). She made up stories and changed the endings of books and movies to make them come out the way she pictured them. But instead of pursuing her writing dream, her love of animals and need for a ‘real’ job led her to a career as a veterinarian.
When she realized she was now making up stories about her clients and their pets, she decided to try writing them down. Her first book, Personal Best, was published in 1991. Thirty award-winning books for Silhouette and Harlequin followed.
Today, that little girl is a USA Today bestselling author and considers herself the luckiest woman in the world. She has two careers she loves as well as the best family ever. She and her husband have three daughters and live in a Chicago suburb with a menagerie of pets.
