I did marry, I did get pregnant, but as I was giving birth, my daughter and I almost died. We were rushed to the hospital. I had an emergency cesarean and in that moment, in the emergency room, I felt my grandmother come to me. She was with me and when my daughter was born, instead of naming her Hailey, I named her Lucy after my grandmother. Hailey lives in the pages of my books.

After I lost my fiance, it seemed like it would be better to always be alone than to risk being hurt again.

I had no plans to be ever a lawyer, a crime fighter [in school].

I really believe that professional wrestlers are not protected. I think everybody gets a big kick out of watching them and whether the wrestling is real or not, people love watching it.

I never thought I'd get to have children; to me [they're] just a miracle.

I was a prosecutor for many years, I'm a crime victim myself, and I've tried so many cases I don't even know how many anymore.

I'm a runner. I like to run.
