Before her pilot career, Sharon worked as a water-sports model and then traveled the world as a flight attendant with Pan American World Airways.Sharon also enjoyed flying antique airplanes, experimental aircraft, and Third-World fighter airplanes. Her Jettine Jorgensen Mysteries will continue with Dead Ends, and her Samantha Starr thriller series has five books with a sixth in the works. Sharon's leisure activities included scuba diving, powered paragliding, snow skiing, surfing, horseback riding, aerobatic flying, sailing, and driving sports cars and motorcycles. Her beloved Timber-shepherds, Pratt and Whitney, were her faithful companions for almost fourteen years, and they produced eight darling puppies. When she lived in Texas, Sharon enjoyed riding her beautiful black and white paint stallion, Chief, who kept her mother's mares happy, fathering several adorable foals.
