In 2004 Regena made a pact with her nephew, “…if you give me a college degree, I’ll write a book.” Today, her nephew’s college diploma graces the mantle of her suburban Chicago home and she continues to write contemporary women’s fiction novels with strong christian and romantic elements.
Regena’s novels explore the complex simplicity of falling in love—in these complicated days. Regena’s honors include Debut Author of the Year, Shades of Romance Magazine and 2017 finalist, Illinois Soon to be Famous Author Project.
