Author Biography
Ophelia Sikes fervently believes that every one of us deserves dedicated, passionate love in our lives - coupled with a soul-deep respect which supports our dreams. Half of the proceeds of this book's sales benefit battered women's shelters. Ophelia adores Worcester, Massachusetts with all its gritty streets, rows of muted-colored three-deckers, and tough-as-nails can-do attitude. She's lived in this area since college, with only a few brief flings in other locations. No matter where else she travels, she's always delighted to return home. From the row of restaurants on Shrewsbury Street to picnicking at Elm Park, from the summertime boaters on Lake Quinsigamond to the St. Patty's Day Parade, there's just something about Worcester. She hopes she's brought this lively, unique town to life for her readers around the world. Please send along as much feedback and suggestions as you can.
