Rita Herron is a USA Today bestselling author of romance and romantic suspense novels. She fell in love with reading at a young age, particularly the Trixie Belden mystery series, and knew she wanted to be a writer. However, she didn’t think it was a viable career option, so she became a kindergarten teacher instead. It was during her time as a teacher that she continued to nurture her love for storytelling, and eventually decided to pursue writing full-time.
Herron has a particular fondness for writing romantic suspense stories that combine murder, mystery, and romance. She also enjoys writing romantic comedies. Her stories are known for their engaging and tension-building narratives, as well as characters that readers can easily relate to. Herron has reached the top of various best-seller lists on numerous occasions, and her global audience continues to grow.
Rita Herron grew up in a small town in Georgia, where she currently resides. She fell in love with the written word at the young age of eight, and completed her first novel at the age of twelve. Despite working in various jobs over the years, Herron always found herself coming back to her love of writing. She worked as a teacher for a time, which allowed her to explore the possibilities of storytelling and hone her craft.
Herron has sold over fifty books to date, many of them being suspense and romance novels with a touch of mystery. She has received critical success as well as commercial success, with her name being nominated for various awards. Herron is respected by both her peers and contemporaries, and has a loyal following of readers around the world. She continues to write to this day, with many more books set to be released in the near future.
