About the Author

Hi! My name is Ariel Richardson. I’m a country girl born and raised in Alabama. I’m thirty-one years old, a single mother of two, and very family oriented. I have a knack for problem-solving, and I have been a troubleshooter on many occasions. I’m quick-witted, fast-reacting, and I welcome change and challenges in my life. I’m one with a complex personality, and I can be quite emotional. I possess innovative abilities, act independently, and love solving other people’s problems. I’m far from perfect, and just like everybody else, I do have my weaknesses. At times, I can be harsh and picky too. I guess, it’s just in my nature because I bear responsibility.
