AUTHOR'S BIO :
The American West and the pioneer days has been a fascination for Catherine Greenfeder since fifth grade when her teacher, Mrs. Seguine, created a “pioneer day” complete with square dancing and venison stew. Her trips to Oklahoma to visit her parents who relocated to Tulsa from New York City sparked an interest in the plight of the Native Americans and those earlier settlers in the frontier states. A fan of romance fiction since high school, Catherine Greenfeder decided to write her first romance novel after careers in publishing and advertising. WILDFLOWERS is the product of several years of research and writing.
Catherine attributes her love of writing to growing up in a household of storytellers, especially her mother who loves to entertain with stories about the past.
Membership in the New York City chapter of Romance Writers of America encouraged Catherine to pursue her writing career and provided a network of support and encouragement she cherishes immensely.
WILDFLOWERS, a historical romance, is her first novel, but it is the second book which is being released in electronic format and Print on Demand (POD). ANGELS AMONG US, a paranormal romance, is the first book released by WINGS ePRESS, Inc. in 2006. Catherine is thrilled to be able to share Johanna and Ryan’s adventures and romance on the Oregon Trail during 1848.
“In some ways I identify with the storytellers or the shamans who told their tales around the campfires long ago. It’s both a craft and an art to bring characters to life, pass along the culture, and entertain. I hope that I have done this and to continue to tell tales which will fill the pages of my books.”
Catherine Greenfeder lives in Nutley, New Jersey with her son Jonathan, husband Wayne, and beloved Labrador retriever, Maxi.

Wildflowers: "Greenfeder's western romance is filled with the trials of settlers going west. The author pulls no punches, and the dangers are graphic to say the least, but very realistic for that era. The villain is a nasty piece of work; the heroine strong-willed; and the hero brash but lovable and a bit clueless when it comes to matters of the heart." -- Four Stars -- HOT -- Romantic Times, October 2007
