Author Biography
India Tasheena Norfleet was born and raised in a home on the west side of Detroit where education was top priority and as a result became an avid reader at ten years of age and was further encouraged by her cousin to then read daily. Some time during the late nineties India was introduced to African American authors and was never seen without a book from then on. While India began reading the babysitters club and R.L. Stein's Goosebumps series and Stephen King horrors, romance very quickly became her favorite genre. By the time she entered high school, India had no other dream bigger than becoming a published romance author and poet. As years progressed to adulthood, dreams of becoming a writer fell by the wayside as doubt consumed her and the real world set in, but writing romance never left her heart. Family and friends, as well as some of her favorite authors continued to encourage her to never give up on something she was so passionate about. So in the summer of 2010, India finally sat down to pen what would become her first novel, Playing For Keeps. India currently lives in suburban Michigan and is hard at work on her second novel.
