Just Add Flames

Cara Reinard grew up north of Sewickley, Pennsylvania in a steel mill town, raised by a single mother. Sewickley, with its grand houses in the Heights and boutique shops on Main was a magical place, out of reach. Cara then attended a private college, Gannon University, becoming the features editor for the college paper, and receiving a scholarship. The residence in Sweet Water was inspired by the party home of steel mogul B.F. Jones--the property still exists, including the pool and pergola. Cara is the author of women's fiction and domestic suspense. She currently lives outside of Pittsburgh with her husband, two children, and Bernese mountain dog.
