When Tawna Fenske finished her English lit
degree at 22, she celebrated by filling a giant
trash bag full of romance novels and dragging
it everywhere until she’d read them all. Now
she’s a RITA-nominated, USA Today
bestselling author who writes humorous
fiction, risqué romance, and heartwarming
love stories with a quirky twist. Publishers
Weekly has praised Tawna’s offbeat
romances with multiple starred reviews and
noted, “There’s something wonderfully
relaxing about being immersed in a story filled
with over-the-top characters in undeniably
relatable situations. Heartache and humor go
hand in hand.”
Tawna lives in Bend, Oregon, with her
husband, stepkids, and a menagerie of ill-
behaved pets. She loves hiking, snowshoeing,
standup paddleboarding, and inventing
excuses to sip wine on her back porch. She
can peel a banana with her toes and loses an
average of twenty pairs of eyeglasses per
year. To find out more about Tawna and her

Thanks so much for all the lovely comments! It's always funny how different people perceive the characters in the book. In my second romantic comedy (due out from Sourcebooks in March 2012) I make several references to the hero resembling John Cusack. My agent doesn't happen to be a John Cusack fan, and chooses to completely ignore that detail. To her, he looks like someone totally different!
