Tassa Avara and her husband, Brian, grew up in South Louisiana, and were high school sweethearts. At 18, they married, moved north, and raised their family in West Monroe, Louisiana. They have two precious sons and four adorable grandchildren. Tassa's love of children stems from eighteen years of experiences as an elementary educator. She is currently teaching at Boley Elementary and has written and illustrated Christian children's books. Dabbling in photography, she stumbled upon the motivation for her first novel, and a new adventure in writing began. It is her desire that all of her stories would inspire others to come to know God's love. Tassa's children's' books teach morals and kindness, while her novels also teach biblical lessons through fictional characters.
