edit data

USA Today Bestselling author Taryn Elliott has made it her mission in life to get as many rockstar stories out of her head and onto the page as possible. Sometimes a hot suited dude makes an appearance, and maybe a wine expert or six. She comes from upstate NY and falls in love with every hero as she writes him. As a bonus there’s always an eclectic soundtrack to match.

She's also the other half of the Rocker Reads duo, Cari Quinn & Taryn Elliott. And one half of Taryn Quinn, who writes steamy small town romantic comedies (among other things.)

She loves to hear from her readers and is on most social media platforms. You can find all her links at https://quinnandelliott.com or email her at taryncari(at)quinnandelliott.com.

“He was her worst nightmare and fondest wish all wrapped up in a damn Boy Scout.”

“If he could bottle her strength
and vitality, he would. He would take everything that
was Tessa and lock it into a corner of his heart, to take
out when the emptiness got too overwhelming.”

“A long, low moan reverberated through her chest and into him. He sucked harder, flicking his tongue around the tiny pink tip. She was in the shadows cast by the late-day sun, leaving him little choice but to learn her by touch. He found the water-soft curve of her breast, running his tongue along the heaviest part of her until she filled his mouth. “More,” he murmured, shifting her higher until his teeth scraped along her ribs.”
― Taryn Elliott, Uncross Your Heart

“Why couldn't the merciful God turn down the sunlight so it wasn't blasting like a red furnace against his aching eyes? Because he'd worshipped the god of beer, thats why. He'd broken a commandment and worshipped the false and foamy god of beer. And now he was being punished.”
