About the Author

New York Times
bestselling
author Susan Mallery has entertained millions of readers with her witty and
emotional stories about women and the relationships that move them.
Publishers Weekly
calls Susan’s prose “luscious and
provocative,” and
Booklist
says “Novels don’t get
much better than Mallery’s expert blend of emotional nuance, humor and superb
storytelling.”

While Susan appreciates the critical praise, she is most
honored by the enthusiastic readers who write to tell her that her books made
them laugh, made them cry, and made the world a happier place to live.

Susan lives in Seattle with her husband and her tiny but
intrepid toy poodle. She’s there for the coffee, not the weather.
