About Andie:

Andie has been a voracious reader her entire life. While she had read romance from time to time previously, it wasn’t until more recently that she truly fell in love with the genre. During the COVID pandemic, like many of us, she couldn’t bring herself to read anything heavy. Needing something lighter and joyful, she turned to romance—and the HEA (Happily Ever After) in romance fit the bill. After a 15 year career in student and academic development in higher education, she took a leap of faith and decided to try her hand at writing. Andie decided to start with a focus on historical romance as she loves the fantasy inherent to the genre, and the way a historical lens can provide a different perspective to understand contemporary issues.

Andie happily lives in Tacoma, WA with her cat. She loves living in the Pacific Northwest and feels invigorated by the beauty of Puget Sound. There is nothing she enjoys more than curling up with a good book and some great coffee on a rainy day. Good food and time with family and friends fulfills her, she is fiercely political, and she appreciates a good story in any form (book, TV, movie, theatre, NPR reporting). When not reading or writing she enjoys attending musical theater performances and playing board games. Andie tries to live by the philosophy of Ted Lasso (and yes, Fated Mates, Roy Kent is a romance hero) and looks at life with a realistic optimism.
