About Author
Pat Patterson
I make my home in California with my wife, Cindy, and together we have raised five terrific sons who are grown and doing well. Before I stepped into the creative world, I spent over 30 years as a Senior Meter Engineer, serving at Southern California Edison, Salt River Project, the California Independent System Operator, and Trimark Associates, Inc.
After retiring, I leaned into a lifelong pull toward the arts, writing, illustration, music creation, entrepreneurship, and photography. My earlier book, Hydrogen Fuel Cells: Independent Power Sources for the Future (2004), reflects my technical roots, but my passion has since turned to stories shaped by love, faith and adventure.
Today, I write romance and adventure novels that honor resilience, hopeful endings, and second chances. I’m currently crafting a new project, starring Nell OSS and a CIA agent that spans Hawaii, South America, the Caribbean, Italy, Sudan, and Istanbul. For me, the journey of adventure and romance is just getting started.
