ⓘ About Caryl McAdoo
Caryl McAdoo is an award-winning American author of Christian books. She was born in Long Beach, California, and her family relocated to Texas when she was only six months old. Her family later moved to Irving, where she met her husband in the summer prior to their junior year. The two would later get married immediately after graduation. The couple moved to Red River County in 2008. Though Caryl always dreamed that she would one day write a book, it was her husband who started first. Six years later, the McAdoos published their first non-fiction book, Antiquing in North Texas. They devoted their time to weekly read and critique sessions, which saw them average a title per year from four presses. Vow Unbroken is the first book in the Texas Romance series by Caryl McAdoo.
