Luana is an award-winning, minister's wife, and former missionary with a passion for spy thrillers and mystery novels. She began writing Christian fiction (the Titus Ray Thriller Series and the Mylas Grey Mystery Series) when her husband retired from the pastorate. Now she writes from an undisclosed location, trying to avoid the torture of mundane housework, grocery shopping, and golf stories. However, she occasionally comes out of hiding to play with her two grandsons or to enjoy a Starbucks caramel macchiato. She resides in Norman, Oklahoma.
