Bikers and Pearls: A Summerbrook Novel

Vicki is a native of the Charleston, South Carolina, Lowcountry and loves to share her enchantment with the area with readers through her writing. Even in childhood, she enjoyed penning stories and poems—no doubt fueled by her grandfather's enthusiasm for telling tales himself. Where else—but in the South—could one find the interesting blend of salt water, eerie swamps and unique people? She devotes much of her time to exploring and researching the region—all while looking for that next idea for a book, a setting or a character. As a native, she understands the subtleties of the dialects and unwritten traditions that make the Lowcountry truly distinctive, and she brings that understanding to her books to create authentic Southern stories.
Vicki admits that she is a recovering teaching professional. When the school bells ring in the fall, she gets both reminiscent and twitchy. In her spare time, she loves traveling, spending weekends at her family's lake house, playing golf and cooking (with lots of wine).
