About the Author

Sandi Paris laughingly describes herself as an “emerging crone with stories to tell!” She has a master’s degree in social work but considers rule-breaking and risk-taking to be important contributors to her education. She learned how to advocate when her baby was born with Down Syndrome. While searching for God and the perfect lover, she discovered skiing, hiking, cycling, snorkeling, paddling, gardening, and dancing with abandon. After her children were launched, Paris dismantled her business, married a younger man, and returned to university. Surrendering to the responsibilities of love are her greatest achievements. Two excerpt stories were previously published.
