Janette Rallison was born in 1966. She was raised in Pullman, Washington and currently lives in Chandler, Arizona with her husband and five children. While she recalls writing since the age of six, publication is a more recent thing. Her early novels were romances and science fiction published by LDS companies. Rallison also published under the name of Sierra St. James. She submitted a teen novel to a Mormon publisher, and it was rejected. After deleting Mormon references, Rallison submitted it to a national book company and her publishing career hit a new level. Her latest novel is My Double Life which was released on May 13, 2010 by Putnam. Rallison is currently at work on a sequel to her popular novel, My Fair Godmother.
