Love Finds You in Sugarcreek, Ohio (31 page)

Although I have attempted to describe the Sugarcreek area and its culture as accurately as possible, this is a complete work of fiction. No individual in this story is based on any person, living or dead, and I did not intentionally represent any real Sugarcreek police officer or their work.

Serena B. Miller

Serena B. Miller decided to get serious about writing fiction while she was working as a court reporter in Detroit and found herself developing an overwhelming desire to compose a happy ending for every transcript she typed. She and her minister-carpenter husband live in a southern Ohio farming community, in an 1830s log cabin that has been in her family for five generations. Serena was delighted when an Amish community formed not far from her home, and she has enjoyed getting to know these hard-working people. When she isn’t canning tomatoes, splitting firewood, shooing deer out of the blueberry bushes, or feeding grown sons who drop by daily to see if she’s cooked anything good, she helps out at her church and sings at the drop of a hat. She also falls in love with all her characters and writes as many happy endings for them as she can.
