.USA Today bestselling author Sally MacKenzie writes funny, hot Regency-set historicals for Kensington's Zebra line.  Her debut, THE NAKED DUKE (February 2005), sold when the acquiring editor judged the manuscript in the 2004 RWA Golden Heart contest, got her contact information, and called out of the blue.  She's been busily writing about noble Naked guys ever since. A native of Washington, D.C., and a recovering parent volunteer, Sally lives with her husband in suburban Maryland and is enjoying her empty nest, having sent her fourth son off to college in fall 2007.  She is currently at work on a novella, "The Naked Laird."
