Tara Tolly

Tara Tolly lives in Cedar Rapids, Iowa with her husband and four children (two human and two canine) where she spends her days shaping the minds of impressionable fourth graders and her nights and summers shaping the lives of her make-believe characters. She loves to escape the pressures of the real world by entering into the fictional worlds she creates within the depths of her imagination.  When not immersed between the covers of a book (or in reality, the glow of her Nook screen) or typing away on her computer, she loves spending time with her family, running, and participating in other creative endeavors such as photography, crafting, and baking. FIRST SUN is her first YA novel and was released September 2014 by Fire & Ice YA. To learn more about Tara, visit her website at www.TaraTolly.com.
