Writer's Digest award-winning author LJ Evans writes achingly heartfelt slow-burns and swoony suspense with deep, relatable characters, true friends, real "family", and dreams remade on this wild ride called life.She lives in Northern California with her husband, child, and the three terrors called cats. She's been writing, almost as a compulsion, since she was a little girl and will often pull the car over to write when a song lyric strikes her. A former 1st-grade teacher, she now spends her free time reading and writing, as well as binge-watching original shows like Ted Lasso, Wednesday, Veronica Mars and Stranger Things.If you ask her the one thing she won’t do, it’s pretty much anything that involves dirt—sports, gardening, or otherwise. But she loves to write about all of those things, and her first published heroine was pretty much involved with dirt on a daily basis. Which is exactly why LJ loves fiction novels—the characters can be everything you’re not and still make their way into your heart.To learn more about LJ Evans visit:ljevansbooks dot comJoin her reader's Facebook group:LJ's Music and StoriesJoin her newsletter from her websiteRead more about this authorRead less about this author
