Chloe’s biggest fault is the apparent inability to say “no” whether it’s
in response to a call for aid or a double-dog-dare to hike home
through 30 acres of a snow-covered forest at midnight…during a full
moon. It was early morning during said adventure when she came upon a
group of sheriff’s deputies searching for a lost girl. So, of
course she offered to help (turns out, they were searching for her).

Chloe has a weakness for good red wine, Calvin & Hobbes comics, pie,
dark chocolate and brown-eyed guys with beards, which is probably why
she digs pirates, men in uniform and treasure hunters and writes
about action and adventure and of course romance, which is the
the greatest adventure of all.
