Samantha Sheridan

Samantha Sheridan’s love for the outdoors was nurtured during her early years growing up on a farm. Raised on the west side of Colorado, she learned about the Rocky Mountains and the farming traditions of the West. At age six, her family returned to her grandparents’ farm in West Central Ohio, but the mountains stayed with her, always calling her back. The Smoky Mountains, a cherished family destination, became her next connection to the rugged beauty she adored—and ultimately inspired her Tennessee mountain romance.

With a major in Communications from Wright State University, Lake Campus, Samantha embarked on a dynamic career. She first became an on-air radio personality, then transitioned to society editor for a local newspaper, where her passion for writing took root. Her creative journey continued as she launched a promotion and marketing company. Later, as manager of a high school Performing Arts Center, she skillfully merged her experiences, making full use of her diverse talents. A role with a company in Nashville further honed her abilities, enabling her to weave music into her stories and use songs to promote her books.

Samantha’s book, The Silver Heart, beautifully integrates her artistic vision with the support of the American Quarter Horse Association, Montana Silversmiths, and several Nashville songwriters. “I love what I do, and I can't wait until my next book is published. I write with my heart, and I want my characters to feel like your best friends or family,” she shares.
