Linda Ross
Linda Ross is an award-winning, best-selling author who has written 22 romance novels under the pen names Kelly Adams and Kelly Jamison for Berkley’s Second Chance at Love series and Harlequin Silhouette. She began her writing career as a newspaper reporter for a Missouri weekly so small that it couldn’t afford a camera. When she needed to take photos for the newspaper, she borrowed a Polaroid from a woman who lived next door to the newspaper office. Sometimes, inconveniently, the woman was using the camera for family outings. After that inauspicious beginning, she wrote short stories for the confession magazines, horrifying her mother-in-law. Then it was on to romance novels before she turned to painting as well. Now she’s an award-winning watercolorist and oil painter who’s exhibited in international shows. She grew up in Maryland and still misses the Chesapeake Bay and blue crabs. A Midwestern transplant, she now lives in Illinois.
