It wasn\u2019t always so. Elizabeth graduated from Hollins College with a BA in Classical Studies and Art History, and then earned her MA from Texas A&M University in Nautical Archaeology, also known as the archaeology of shipwrecks. While Elizabeth loved the life of a working archaeologist, after writing and reading all those dry, dusty reports on ship construction, she would daydream about how lovely it would have been if only someone had fallen in love on just one of those ships. And so now she writes stories about just that.<\/p>\n Elizabeth lives in Texas with her family, in a house filled to the brim with books.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" An Unlikely Partnership and an Uncontrollable Desire. . .
