Danielle Baker was born and raised in the picturesque city of Petoskey, nestled on the crystalline shores of Lake Michigan, which also happens to be the setting of most of her books. Danielle's love of reading began with a bespectacled boy named Harry, and she has been devouring literature ever since. Her love of writing began while she was in high school, and by the time she graduated she had written a plethora of short stories, two novellas and three novels. Life and family took a front seat to writing for several years, but at the urging of her family, Danielle was given the boost she needed to 'get back in the saddle' and keep reaching for her lifelong dream of becoming a published author. When Danielle isn't working, writing or spending time with her family and beloved golden retriever, she can be found with a cup of coffee in one hand and a book in the other.
