ⓘ About Sharon Sala
Having over fifty books to her name, Sharon Sala got introduced to books at the age of four and her love for them has never wavered ever since. The writer who got hooked to romance at a tender age through the stories of Emily Loring, Grace Livingston Hill and Zane Gray also writes as Dinah McCall. Her job drove her to writing as she hated it but she didn’t have an easy beginning. Sharon made her first step towards what she is known for today when she wrote her first book in 1980 and a second in 1981, both of which were never good enough according to her assessment. She never wrote again as she engaged herself in the affairs of her family until her father died followed two months later by her sister in 1985. These two sad events acted as her turning point.
