National bestselling novelist Donna Lea Simpson has written and published over 25 novels and novellas for Kensington/Zebra, Blackfriars Publications and Berkley. She has written Regency, time-travel, contemporary and paranormal-historical romances, as well as plunging into mystery writing.
The first of her paranormal historical books for Berkley, AWAITING THE MOON, (February 2006) became a national bestseller and was nominated for Best Paranormal Historical of 2006 by Romantic Times. The follow-up, AWAITING THE NIGHT, (November 2006) was also well-received; Harriet Klausner calls it “a wonderful historical that is a one sitting read.” Romantic Times says, “Victoria Holt would be proud.” AWAITING THE FIRE (September 2007) continues the series with a scorching tale of paranormal twists, gothic mystery, danger and love set in the Cornish moors.
Donna resides in Canada and passionately loves reading, as well as enjoying movies, crafts, home improvement TV shows and outdoor pursuits. She collects weird fossils, cat figurines and antique books (old books, not books about antiques!), and adores treasure hunting at flea markets and antique shops.
