About

Hi, I’m Laura!I’ve loved reading for as long as I can remember--starting with childhood favorites like American Girl and The Boxcar Children, and growing into a full-blown YA obsession as a teen (Twilight and Divergent, anyone?). I took a break while my kids were little, but fell headfirst back into the magic of books thanks to A Court of Thorns and Roses, because honestly, who can resist Rhysand?Storytelling has always been a constant for me. I’ve had characters and ideas living in my head for years, and eventually decided it was time to start writing them down.My debut novel, What Happens at the End?, is a light contemporary romance featuring one of my favorite tropes: forced proximity. My second book, Echoes of Pandora, is a love letter to adventure stories inspired by Lara Croft, Indiana Jones, and The Mummy.Right now, I’m exploring the world of novellas while working on another contemporary romance. After that: returning to Echoes of Pandora for book two--with the goal of releasing it by the end of 2027 (fingers crossed!).When I’m not writing, you’ll find me rewatching my favorite comfort shows or staying up far too late reading “just one more chapter.”
