About the author

Born and raised in the beautiful Pacific Northwest, I've spent most of my life writing. I am, at heart, a storyteller. As early as I can remember I have loved stories and loved telling them in my own inimitable way.

A Harley Austin book often defies the typical categories. A cross-genre author, you can find me writing stories that include classic romance, mystery, suspense, fantasy, and science fiction--and always with a heavy dose of the unexpected.

I am also an insufferable romantic and relationship junkie. A Harley Austin story will often include a steamy romance, often more than one, between a hero and heroine, or even between two heroes or two heroines. I will keep you guessing.

Story descriptions are important to me, and often the most difficult to write. It is always a balancing act to deliver a hard-hitting description of the book without giving too much of the story away. As such, a Harley Austin book description will often be a little shy on the details.

Harley Austin novels are also just that--novels. When you pickup one of my books you will get 300 to 400 or more pages of riveting story.

I don't do cliffhangers.

I also don't drag you into an book or milieu just so I can kill off beloved characters at the end. A book is much more than just entertainment. It is a time where you and I connect, and you graciously give me the power to lead you to a place of wonder. A story is something that is immersive, personal, where one feels like they know the people in the story deeply and intimately.

A Harley Austin romance is one can be loved and enjoyed by anyone, whether they are male or female. The fact is, I receive just as much rave response from men reading my stories as I do women. Again, the Harley Austin novel often defies categories and crosses numerous genres to weave a story that attracts readers from all walks of life.
