Nancy Gideon is the award-winning bestseller of over 70 original titles (83, including reissues) since her first publication in 1987. The Michigan author’s writing career is as versatile as the romance market, itself. Her books encompass genres from action-packed historicals, lushly sensual regencies, and contemporaries edged with suspense, to the dark paranormal worlds of vampires and shapeshifters, with a couple of horror screenplays and an Indie horror movie tie-in novel thrown into the mix, along with non-fiction how-tos on writing and publishing.

Under her own name, Nancy Gideon, she’s a top 50 Amazon bestseller with her “Touched by Moonlight” vampire series and “By Moonlight” dark shape-shifter series, and is also listed on the Internet Movie Database (IMDB) for collaborating on Indie horror films In the Woods and Savage with screenwriting and ADR script credits, and a small role as “bar extra” she likes to boast about.  Her Harlequin/Silhouette contemporary suspenses are also still available. Writing historical and contemporary romance as Dana Ransom, she’s a “Career Achievement for Historical Adventure” award winner with books published in Romanian, Italian, Russian, Danish, Dutch, Portuguese, French, German, Icelandic and Chinese and her contemporary romances have been reissued. Many of her older historical titles (from the ‘80s and ‘90s) will also soon being reissued. Writing historicals as Rosalyn West, she’s a HOLT Medallion winner, and she has also penned Regencies-set historicals as Lauren Giddings, with her first sale, SWEET TEMPEST, now available as her first audio book.  

A national speaker on writing in general and romance in particular and prolific author, Nancy attributes her creative output, which once peaked at seven novels in one year, to her love of history and a gift for storytelling, also crediting a background in journalism and her OCD. Newly retired after 20 years as a legal assistant in Michigan, she dotes on her grandguy, feeds a Netflix addiction along with all things fur, fin and fowl and has enjoyed brainstorming with the same PotL critique group for over 20 years!
