Lynn Kurland's Bio

Lynn Kurland is the national bestselling author of seven novels and four novellas. A full-time writer, she lives in the Pacific Northwest with her family. People often ask me why I choose to write romance. As I look back over my own tastes in reading, I've come to realize that no matter what I read while growing up, there was never enough love story in it for me! I've read Tolkien's Lord of the Rings trilogy 14 times and every single time I find myself looking for more pages to find out exactly what happened to Aragorn and Arwen. I wanted details! So after years of reading fantasy, science fiction and mystery, I picked up my first romance in college. I was hooked. Finally, a story where the love story had center stage! I made my own tentative attempts and after a few creations fit only for the recycle bin, my first ghost story, Stardust of Yesterday, came to be. While I have a captive audience, let me thank those of you who have been so supportive of my work. It's because of you, your letters and emails, and your willingness to shell out your hard-earned money for my books that I'm able to do something I love to do-and do it the way I want to. My publisher has given me enormous freedom in what and how I write, but that has only come because kind readers such as you who have continued to support my work. I love to write. I love everything about it. (Well, all right, I'm not really wild about reviews now and then, but if you can't take the heat . . .) I love having the chance to bring some of my favorite characters to life.
