AUTHOR'S BIO:

Texas born, but Louisiana reared, I was once asked in an interview by a fellow romance writer if I’ve had adventures in my life. I had to admit being married many years to the guy I met on a blind date, and having two sons and twin daughters has certainly been an adventure. Plus having a mate who likes to cook, entertain and travel provides endless backgrounds for my stories.

I am a long-time resident of Baton Rouge, and until writing became my passion, tennis, golf and rearing four active children filled my days. Now, grandchildren, good friends and the computer occupy my time. My encouraging husband couldn’t be happier--writing keeps me from the shopping malls.

I am often distracted by my critique group’s stories, my husband’s dinner parties, golf trips, travels, and anything and everything else that pops up to drag me from the computer. But my imagination never stops--plots, characters, and happy endings are always on my mind.

 

REVIEWS/QUOTES:

Eleanor Cocreham has done it again--another epic tale of romance. In Risk Takers, the sequel to Choice Makers, Eleanor takes the reader on a whirlwind adventure from the fashion runways of Paris to the highest echelons of American society. Fascinating characters and convoluted sub-plots offer an escape from the ordinary.

Sparks fly when super model Emily Wannamaker and architect Mike Randolph meet, but one calamitous event after the other turns a possible relationship into a war of obstinacy. Despite past demons and the fear of uncertainty, their hunger for one another intensifies. Can they shed the shackles of the past? Are they willing to risk everything for love? --Sylvia Rochester, Shadow of the Soul, www.sylviarochester.com

Risk Takers, the second book in the Wanamaker series is as exciting and sensual as Choice Makers. Pair an irresistible woman searching for herself and a man trying to avoid women, and sooner or later things have to heat up. Yet even as their passion grows, Emily and Mike fear commitment, and try everything they can to avoid the truth of their feelings for one another--until a horrific accident brings them together again and they realize that their love and need for one another is far stronger than their differences. You won’t want to put this one down, either. --Elaine Grant, http://www.elainegrant.com/, www.myspace.com/eygrant

Risk Takers: A true family saga the like of which was never seen by the Waltons. Everything is challenged, morality, fidelity, even legality. Risk Takers exposes the not so pretty underbelly of the glamorous world of models. Each chapter reveals another aspect of this tightly crafted tale. Ms. Cocreham has once again woven a story that both entertains and enlightens. The author unfolds not only the story but the multi-layers of her characters. You see their flaws and how they grow in spite of them. The reader has a stake in the outcome and finds themselves compelled to turn each page until the final page. This reviewer is continually amazed at this author’s ability to create multi-leveled and cleverly interwoven tales that so engage the reader. Rather than reveal any of her tale I will simply say this book rates a five out of five. You really must read this book. --A. Dee Carey. www.foxladycarey.com, Foxpaw Reviews www.careyfoxlady.googlepages.com

Choice Makers: Making a choice takes but a moment. Living with the consequences lasts forever. First-time author, Eleanor Cocreham, takes the reader on a whirlwind adventure, complete with all the glamour of high society romance. Her attention to setting and detail is surpassed only by her vivid and memorable portrayal of characters. This is one you will want to read again and again. --Sylvia Rochester, The Sweet Smell of Death, When Evil Loves, Wings ePress.com

Choice Makers:  Choices are made, lives altered, love defined in this page turner debut novel by Eleanor Cocreham. Hold on for a passionate ride from Big Sur, to Denver, New York, Paris and back. This book will leave you breathless! —Elaine Grant, Make Believe Mom, Harlequin Super Romance

Choice Makers: A romance that is so true to the ironies of life you laugh, you ache, you cry and wonder how the writer so magnificently captured it all. Unrequited love, awakened sensuality and love of family all in a single tale, along with glamour, rich men and a very strong, beautiful woman. Ms. Cocreham attacked the tough subjects and revealed the greatest truth of all. Love has the power to move mountains, even the human pebbles that cling to the cliff of  fate. This is a MUST read, but keep the tissues close by. You will need them. This author is destined for greatness. --Foxpaw Reviews, http://careyfoxlady.googlepages.com
