Tina Wheeler is an award-winning author, wife, mother, grandmother, and retired teacher. With two pen names, she published ten novels and two novellas (romances and cozy mysteries) through The Wild Rose Press, Amazon’s Kindle Scout program, and self-publishing before selling her cowboy protector books to Harlequin’s Love Inspired Suspense imprint.

Her stories are influenced by her years growing up on military bases in the desert Southwest, watching mysteries on television with her mother, listening to family members in law enforcement, and marrying her romantic husband, nicknamed the Irish Charmer.
