Rachael Lucas is a successful author from England, known for her young adult fiction and contemporary romance novels. She has written over 15 books for adults and teenagers, including the top 10 bestseller "Sealed with a Kiss" and the Carnegie nominated "The State of Grace." Lucas's writing has been well-received, with her books being translated into several languages, including Hungarian, Korean, French, Turkish, Latvian, German, Norwegian, Danish, Swedish, and Estonian.
In addition to writing under her own name, Lucas also publishes works under the pseudonym Rosie Curtis. One such work is the sweet holiday romance "We Met in December," which was an Amazon Editor's pick. Lucas is a prolific writer who keeps her readers up-to-date on behind-the-scenes news and updates through her newsletter and Facebook page. She finds inspiration in small town stories and is a big fan of Hallmark movies. Lucas's love for reading started at a young age, with Anne of Green Gables and Jo March being some of her literary heroines.
Lucas's writing style is known for its warmth, gentle humor, and beautiful small-town settings. These elements provide her readers with an escape from everyday life. She has been praised for her ability to capture complex emotions and both romantic and platonic intimacy. Publisher's Weekly has given her writing starred reviews, and The British Guardian has called her "honest, romantic and hilarious." Lucas's teenage boys think she's a bit disorganized, often forgetting to cook dinner when she's in the middle of writing. However, her readers would argue that the results of her writing are well worth it.
Lucas currently resides in the northwest of England by the seaside with her family and two energetic spaniels. When she's not writing at her kitchen table with a cup of coffee by her side, she enjoys walking her dogs on the beach or nearby pinewoods. She is a proud Kindle owner and finds joy in being able to carry a whole library in her pocket. Lucas's love for reading and writing shines through in her work, making her a beloved author in the young adult and contemporary romance genres.
