Protecting Alabama

Abe meets the woman of his dreams in the middle of a raging fire. Alabama is damaged from her horrible childhood. Abe has to work hard to show Alabama that he made a horrible mistake, but she’s not so sure she wants to forgive him.

Susan Stoker has a heart as big as the state of Texas where she lives but this all American girl has also spent the last fourteen years living in Missouri, California, Colorado, and Indiana. She is quite the romantic and even met the love of her life on ＂Hotmail classified＂ before online dating and sites like match.com even existed! Susan has been reading romance novels since middle school and once crossed out the names of the main characters in a book and changed them to her own and to the name of her crush. She’s been writing scenes for years, developing her unique writing style. Susan loves writing but her true passion is adopting dogs from rescue groups and shelters. Susan and her husband have had a total of nine ＂rescued＂ dogs since 2000 including a variety of basset hounds and bloodhounds. She has recently branched out and adopted a basset/terrier mix who acts more like a terrier than a basset (i.e. digging, eating a couch and being hyper).
