Brief Bio:
Sharon Potts is the award-winning author of In Their Blood and Someone's Watching, suspense novels about ordinary people in extraordinary situations set in South Florida. Her work has received numerous awards including the 2010 Benjamin Franklin Award for best mystery/suspense novel, as well as a starred review in Publishers Weekly. A former teacher-turned-CPA-turned-business-exec-turned-writer, Potts isn't good with boundaries. She loves writing about people, relationships, and families, and is as comfortable putting her characters in tense, suspenseful situations as in unpredictable humorous ones. Because after all—isn't that what life's all about?
Entertainment Weekly called Sharon Potts an author who looks like she plans "to stick around for a while."
