Ann Bartle Stewart lives in Charlotte, North Carolina, with her husband and young son. She’s an avid horse woman, though admits she’s neglected her favorite pastime in recent years, a life-long learner, and an educator. Other favorite pastimes include trips to the beach with her extended family and lazy afternoons spent curled up with a good movie and friends. A born reader and story teller, she spends most of her free time with her nose in a book or thinking up a story as she daydreams about people she’d love to meet and places she’d like to visit.
