ⓘ About Cara Reinard

Reinard was raised by her single mother just north of Sewickley, Pennsylvania. Sewickley was a steel mill town just outside of Pittsburgh with a population of just 3,827 as of 2010. Cara considered the place almost magical as a youth with grand houses in the Heights and boutique shops on Main. However, it was out of reach for her. She would go on to attend private college at Gannon University. She received a scholarship to attend and made the most of it as she would become the editor for her college paper. Reinard now makes her home in Pittsburgh. She is married and the couple have two children and a Bernese mountain dog. Finn is calling from the woods and by the time Martin and Sarah find him, he’s injured and confused.
