No matter the genre, USA-Today bestselling novelist and playwright Edie Claire strives to infuse all her writing with both warmth and humor. Her romantic novels range from women's fiction with romantic elements to a blend of romance and mystery, beginning with her traditionally published contemporaries, the award-winning Long Time Coming and Meant To Be, and continuing with the USA-Today bestselling Pacific Horizons series. Her family-friendly Leigh Koslow cozy mystery series, a favorite of animal lovers that was originally published with Penguin-Putnam in 1999, was reborn in 2012 to become another USA-Today bestseller. Under the banner of Stackhouse Press, Edie has now published over 25 titles including digital, print, audio, and foreign translations. Her works are distributed worldwide, with her first contemporary romance, Long Time Coming, exceeding two million downloads. She has received multiple “Top Pick” designations from Romantic Times Magazine and received both the “Reader’s Choice Award” from Road To Romance and the “Perfect 10 Award” from Romance Reviews Today. A former veterinarian and childbirth educator, Edie is a happily married mother of three who currently resides in Pennsylvania. She enjoys gardening and wildlife-watching and dreams of becoming a snowbird.
