Jan Scarbrough

Jan Scarbrough is an accomplished romance author known for crafting heartfelt stories set in diverse locales, from the Bluegrass region of Kentucky to the mountains of Montana and medieval England. She has written two popular contemporary series - the Bluegrass romances and the Ghost Mountain Ranch trilogy - which blend small-town charm, family dynamics, and equestrian themes. Her works also extend into paranormal gothic romance with "Timeless" and "Tangled Memories," the latter earning recognition as a Romance Writers of America Golden Heart finalist. Additionally, her historical romance "My Lord Raven" explores themes of honor and betrayal in a medieval setting.

With a Master's degree in English from Western Kentucky University, Scarbrough brings literary depth to her storytelling. A member of Novelist, Inc., she self-publishes her works and has authored 28 romances across multiple subgenres. Her contemporary Western series, including the Dawsons of Montana quartet and the Ghost Mountain Ranch books, often weave mystery and happily-ever-after endings. Whether writing about single mothers, competitive horse shows, or Gothic intrigue, Scarbrough's narratives emphasize emotional resonance and a strong sense of place.
