Colleen Hoover

Colleen Hoover is a rapidly rising American author, best known for her romance novels. Originally from Texas, she currently resides in the state with her husband and their three sons. Hoover's career took off after the success of her Slammed series, which gained her a large following and allowed her to transition to writing full-time.

Hoover is a versatile writer, with her work spanning various genres including young adult romance fiction, thriller, women's fiction, and paranormal romance. She has expressed her dislike for being confined to a single genre and prefers to have the freedom to explore different styles of writing. Her popularity has caught the attention of large publishing houses, who now see self-publishing sales as an indicator of trends in the market. This has led to the creation of a new category for publishers to consider, that of young adult romance fiction.

In addition to her writing, Hoover is also the founder of The Bookworm Box, a non-profit book subscription service and bookstore in Sulphur Springs, Texas. The organization aims to provide support to various charities through the sale of books and other items. Hoover is also active on social media, where she can be found under the username @colleenhoover.
