When Lori Keesey wrote and illustrated a story about three puppies lost in a hatbox, it piqued her interest in writing. An introduction to Scout Finch in To Kill a Mockingbird many years later sealed the deal. Lori decided then that she wanted to write fiction. Many, many years passed—and hundreds of novels were read—before Lori realized her goal with her debut novel, Always Think of Me.

A former journalist, Lori has written for daily newspapers, trade publications, and magazines and worked for NASA in public outreach for nearly twenty years as a communication consultant. She graduated from the University of Maryland, College Park, where she met her husband, Kevin Berry, the father of their three sons. Lori was born in Washington, DC, and now calls Walland, Tennessee, home.

Always Think of Me

Sometimes love gives you a second chance. Sometimes it doesn’t. And sometimes it returns in a way you could’ve never imagined. Tyrus Cal, TC to his friends, had no plans to leave his party boy life, but when he met Ginny at an outdoor music festival he fell. Hard. He brought out his best stories to charm her, and she returned the sentiment with long-buried secrets about her traumatic past. But when their budding relationship ends abruptly, TC moves on, assuming he won’t get a second chance with the captivating Ginny. But then he does. Just not in the way he expected. Always Think of Me is an uncommon love story about friendship, do-overs, and a perspective on life that can set us free.
