About
The Author
Theresa Annette Leinemann was born in Ottawa, in the early 1960s, to a registered nurse and an RCMP constable, who met on a train while escorting a prisoner to a mental health facility. All the elements of an interesting historical romance? She would agree.
Terry is the mother of three young women who were encouraged to express their creativity and imagination throughout their childhood without too much interference from their mother who was probably immersed in a book. She has been married for thirty six years.
In the spring of 2016, Terry and her husband sold their home and bought a 37-foot Class A, Triple E motorhome (for Excitement, Enthusiasm, and Enrichment). They spent the summer working and living in the Yukon Territory at a gold mining operation near the Alaskan border, complete with bears, panning for gold, and learning that adventure is in Terry’s blood. Her great-grandfather and great uncle had endured adversity and hardship as prospectors during the gold rush of 1898.
The year 2018 brings much of the same, and after surviving their second winter in an RV they are back in the Yukon for another mining season.
