Tara Eldana

Tara Eldana, pen name, is an award-winning staff writer for a weekly community newspaper chain in metro Detroit. She became hooked on romance fiction when her eleventh grade English teacher rejected the book report she wrote, saying the book was too easy for her, and insisted she read and report on Daphne du Maurier's "Rebecca."

She loves the romance genre and loves letting her characters take control of their stories.

Eldana earned a bachelor's degree with a journalism major at Oakland University in Rochester, Michigan and is a member of the Greater Detroit Romance Writers of America.
