Liliana Hart is a renowned American author, best known for her works in the romance (erotic and romantic suspense) and mystery genres. She has written several series including the MacKenzie Family erotic romance, Addison Holmes mysteries, and J.J. Graves mysteries series. Hart's passion for writing began in her childhood, and she wrote her first novel during her first year of college. This marked the beginning of a successful writing career that has seen her win numerous awards such as the Daphne Du Maurier, Suzannah, Linda Howard Award of Excellence, Maggie, and others.
Before her writing career, Hart spent five years teaching music in the American public education system. She was strict and firm, and her experiences during this period would later inspire her to write the Addison Holmes Mystery Series. After quitting teaching, Hart began reading romance novels and, upon exhausting her reading options, decided to write her own novels. Her first attempt was a 150,000-word thriller, which she found out later was not as romantic as she had imagined, particularly the part about losing one's virginity. However, she persevered and eventually learned the ropes, producing novels with suspense, laughter, and steamy sex scenes.
Hart is a New York Times, USA Today, and Publisher's Weekly Bestselling Author with over 60 titles to her name. She started her first novel in college and, upon realizing her passion for writing, decided to pursue it full-time. Her books have appeared at number one on bestseller lists worldwide, and all three of her series have made it to the New York Times list. Hart is also a popular speaker, having given keynote speeches and workshops to standing-room-only crowds from Hawaii to New York to London. She is a member of Romance Writers of America and Mystery Writers of America and enjoys cooking, reading, playing Internet Boggle, kickboxing, and watching Bones. Hart lives in Texas with her husband, five children, and a French bulldog named Bacon. She loves hearing from her readers and encourages them to reach out to her.
