Mia Mae Lynne lived in Cleveland Heights, Ohio. Her mom was a part-time nurse in a private nursing home and her dad was a local truck driver for Chase Brass & Copper Company. She has two sisters.

In her early life, she participated in several activities including ballet, acrobatics, roller skating, and ice skating. Realizing that her talents were classroom oriented, she focused more on academics. She completed high school in the East Cleveland School system. She was also an active member of the INROADS program.

Mia attended and graduated from the University of Akron with a B.S. in Accounting. She pledged Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority in her freshman year and spent many hours studying and partying with friends.

In September, 1989 Mia was married in Cleveland, Ohio. She and her husband moved to Louisville, KY where their first son, Carlos, was born. In 1992 the family moved to Rome, Georgia where their second son, Marcus, was born. With two beautiful boys to light up her life, Mia dedicated herself to her family. She worked full time in the aerospace industry during the day and was a soccer mom evenings and weekends. In 2008, with Christmas fast approaching, the first novel in her series, "The Chronicles of Fate," was born. Following "Tempting Fate" seven more books were written.

In 2009, Mia lost her father. In the heartbreak that followed, her marriage dissolved, she lost her job, and moved to Cleveland to be closer to her mother.

Even with all the tragedies, Mia never lost faith in her work and in 2010 Mia began the process of editing and copyrighting her series.

In April, 2015, she opened her self-publishing company, Book & Spirit, LLC. She renamed her series from "The Chronicles of Fate" to "Southern Men Don't Fall in Love". Several contributors came forward to assist with the project including her son, Carlos, who volunteered to translate the series into Spanish. He hired two of his college friends to edit the books into Spanish of the America's and European Spanish.

The first book of the renamed series was Atlanta's Most Eligible Bachelor. It was released November 4, 2015 in English, Spanish (ES and SA), large print, and standard editions in honor of her son, Carlos', birthday. She plans to release her next book, Atlanta's Most Eligible Bachelor II, on April 26, 2016 in honor of her son Marcus. She plans to release books twice a year to commemorate the two most important men in her life.

Now between writing and editing her books, her new career in the aerospace industry and watching her sons' college and professional soccer careers, Mia spends her time as a student of spiritualism. She received training from the Fellowship of the Spirit. She looks forward to visiting Lily Dale, New York, again in her future.
