When Clarice Mayfield graduated from high school, she immediately embarked on a journey to explore the American Southwest. Travelling mainly by bus and train, she’d spend most of her time gazing outside windows, imprinting images of the great outdoors into her mind. That’s when she knew she was in love with the South and it’s vast deserts. 

With a  B.A. in philosophy and English, she started her career writing articles in her university’s newspaper. Her guilty pleasure? Coming up with short romance stories, dreaming to one day become a published author. Since then, she has been writing non-stop, combining her two great pleasures: a good love story and the American Southwest.  

Her goal? To encourage her readers to dive deep into a world where the dust is red, the sound of galloping horses echoes across the plains, and love blooms, rare and wild, like a desert flower!
