Biography

Kate Collins, an Indiana native, graduated from Purdue University with a master's degree in education. She taught elementary school for six years. After the birth of her first child, she gave up teaching to pursue a writing career. After writing short humorous stories for children's magazines and working part-time as a legal secretary, she sold her first historical romance novel in 1995. Since then, she has published seven historical romantic suspenses and eight mysteries.

Her books have appeared on The New York Times Best Seller list, Barnes & Noble mass market mystery best-sellers' lists, the Independent Booksellers' best-seller's lists, and booksellers' lists in Australia and England.

Some of her books were adapted for television as the Flower Shop Mysteries in 2016, starring Brooke Shields as florist/detective Abby Knight.
