About the Author

Paulette Breau served as an officer in the RCMP from 1987 to 2017, retiring as a sergeant. Writing to inspire her three nieces to overcome any obstacle placed before them as women, she hopes that her writing brings hope to many readers.

She's the proud mother of two Labradors, Oakley and Tilley. Tilley was a rescue she tried to foster but failed-which she considers the best failure of her life!
