ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Charmaine is a delightful human mom to grown up kids and a proud parent to fluffy, four legged companions. You might spot her in a moment of thoughtful contemplation over her ever growing to do list, only to find her next lost in a daydream, conjuring up her next captivating story, or diving into the fascinating world of baby animals.

The lover of laughter and heartwarming connections adores losing herself in a good rom-com, a swoon-worthy romance novel, or a charming tale of serendipitous love. Her happy places? Anywhere near the soothing rhythm of the beach, the majestic embrace of the mountains, the vibrant life of her garden, or surrounded by the joyful company of family, friends, her beloved dogs, and of course a stack of books. 

Music is the constant soundtrack to Charmaine’s life, whether it’s the vibrant energy of live performances, the warm crackle of vinyl, or the melodies that dance within her own imagination.

Beyond her passion for storytelling and nature, Charmaine is a licensed clinical social worker by profession and the founder of Bundles of Books, an inspiring charity with a mission to promote literacy. Her commitment to building home libraries for children is truly heartwarming. While her current books grace the shelves of adult readers, one can only imagine the enchanting tales she’ll one day unleash for the younger generation, given the multitude of ideas bubbling in her mind..
