Delia traded the genteel ways of Savannah, Georgia for the bright lights and big city life in New York before the ink is barely dry on her high school diploma and she has no intention of ever looking back, that is, until Oliver calls. Your mother has passed, Delia. Your father needs you. She hung up the phone and cried over a mother she barely knew. Now, it's up to her to care for a father she hates in a place she vowed to never return to. Little does she know she will soon face the truth of her mother's past, a truth with the potential to destroy everything she thought she knew about life as the daughter of Greyson James Reddick IV and his cold, distant wife, Charlotte Ann.
Mary Lynn has worn many hats—secretary, certified nursing assistant, and retail manager, among others—but none has meant as much to her as writer. After earning a bachelor’s degree in management, she took a bold step in pursuit of her dream of becoming a full-time writer in 2012, applying and gaining acceptance to the Master of Fine Arts Program in Creative Writing at Fairleigh Dickinson University. There she honed her craft, and shortly after graduation in 2015, realized her dream. These days, she spends her time writing and researching her first novel, due to be completed later this year. Residing in northern Illinois, Mary Lynn is married and enjoys spending time with her husband, three grown children and four grandchildren.
