Selene Grace Silver writes lyrical, immersive, and compelling romances featuring intelligent heroines and passionate heroes who overcome personal challenges to create deep, empathetic relationships.

Raised in land-locked North Dakota, Selene spent her youth longing to escape. First, she escaped into books, then she escaped to the West Coast, trading waves of golden grain for ultramarine ocean currents. Today, with her Scottish-born husband, she lives just minutes from the Pacific, where the horizon ties the sea to the sky and the surf surges against the shore, soothing her restless spirit.

Selene believes in two true things: love and the power of stories. Everything else is up for debate.

I think about the courage the writer had to put those words and sentences down on paper and then share them with readers. After all, it's easy to find fault with someone's work because writing well is difficult, even for practiced, experienced writers. They had to have suffered fear of failure too, but they persevered.

Language is messy, unruly. It's like trying to line up a bunch of writhing, wiggly snakes and keep them in place. It's impossible to do it perfectly. I think about Jean Giraudoux's quote: "Only the mediocre are always at their best." So I try to be brave. Fear that one is writing a disaster-in-the-making is an inevitable aspect of the process. I try to remember that and just keep writing.(less)

Honestly, I could probably list a hundred couples I've loved over the years (I read a lot). So, limited to just one? No way. Here are ten of the best, off the top of my head.
1. Elizabeth and Darcy (Pride and Prejudice, Jane Austen) Classic. Perfect couple. No explanation needed.
2. Georgina and Harry (The Leopard Prince, Elizabeth Hoyt) A quirky lady with her head in the clouds and her taciturn land manager determined to keep his hands off the woman born above his class? Annual reread for me.
3. Chaz and Gabriel (Gabriel’s Ghost, Linnea Sinclair) The rebel with a poet's soul rescues the female military officer who has never been able to capture him...and they join forces against evil. One of the best SFRs.
4. Rebecca and Logan (Master of the Mountain, Cherise Sinclair) A damaged, dominating hero gets healed by an artist's sweet, submissive nature. Sigh.
5. Emmaline and Lachlan (A Hunger Like No Other, Kresley Cole) A mating call so powerful, a man rips off his leg to escape his chained state in order to reach his intended, only to discover that she's a creature he despises? And they're both immortal so this is forever. What a meet cute!
6. Marie and Horse (Reaper’s Property, Joanna Wylde) A feisty heroine tames a giant hulking biker who pushes all her boundaries. Hotter than hot.
7. Annie and Eric (Hard Time, Cara McKenna) Prim librarian flirts with violent inmate in prison, then he gets released early. Oops.
8. Lillian and Marcus (It Happened One Autumn, Lisa Kleypas) Headstrong, tomboyish, rich American turns the head of an arrogant, proper and wealthy Duke, driving him crazy, and seducing him into love.
9. Suzanne and John (Midnight Man, Lisa Marie Rice) Stylish, elegant designer needs protection, and she gets it from one dangerous, ex-military and super masculine guy.
10. Serena and Lucky (Lucky’s Lady, Tami Hoag) The Louisiana bayou adds a sultry sensuality to this couple's love story--a haunted artist living outside civil society and the beautiful psychologist who soothes his tormented soul.

“I want to stand as close to the edge as I can without going over. Out on the edge you see all kinds of things you can't see from the center.”
Kurt Vonnegut, Player Piano

“Romance is the glamour which turns the dust of everyday life into a golden haze. ”
Elinor Glyn

“Love never dies a natural death. It dies because we don't know how to replenish its source. It dies of blindness and errors and betrayals. It dies of illness and wounds; it dies of weariness, of witherings, of tarnishings.”
Anais Nin

“Some things you know all your life. They are so simple and true they must be said without elegance, meter and rhyme...they must be naked and alone, they must stand for themselves.”
Philip Levine

“She wanted something to happen - something, anything: she did not know what.”
Kate Chopin
