Autorenporträt
Born and raised in west Michigan, Sharlene MacLaren attended Spring Arbor University. Upon graduating with an education degree in 1971, she taught second grade for two years, then accepted an invitation to travel internationally for a year with a singing ensemble. After traveling for a year, she returned to her teaching job, then in 1975, she reunited with her childhood sweetheart, and they married that very December. They have raised two lovely daughters, both of whom are now happily married and enjoying their own families. Retired in 2003 after thirty-one years of teaching, Shar loves to read, sing, travel, and spend time with her family--in particular, her adorable grandchildren! Shar has always enjoyed writing, and her high school classmates eagerly read and passed around her short stories. In the early 2000s, Shar felt God's call upon her heart to take her writing pleasures a step further, so in 2006, she signed a contract with Whitaker House for her first faith-based novel, Through Every Storm, thereby launching her professional writing career. With two dozen published historical romance novels now gracing store shelves and being sold online, Shar gives God all the glory. Shar's novels have won awards or nominations in several categories, including "American Christian Fiction Writers Book-of-the-Year," "Road to Romance Reviewer's Choice Award," "Inspirational Readers' Choice Award," and the "Retailers' Choice Awards." Most recently, A Love to Behold was voted "Book of the Year" in 2019 by Interviews & Reviews, and Their Daring Hearts was named a 2018 Top Pick by Romantic Times. Her latest novel, The Mercy Tree, takes place after World War II. Shar has done numerous countrywide book signings and has participated in several interviews on television and radio. She loves to speak for community organizations, libraries, church groups, and women's conferences. In her church, she is active in women's ministries, regularly facilitating Bible studies and other events. Shar and her husband, Cecil, live in Spring Lake, Michigan, with their beautiful white collie, Peyton. Shar loves hearing from her readers.
