About Me

Heather Lauren - Romance Author

Hey there, I'm Heather Lauren

Romance Author | Book Mom | Beard Enthusiast

I'm a bestselling contemporary romance author who believes that love stories should make you laugh, cry, and fan yourself — sometimes all on the same page. Based in Arizona with my family (and yes, my husband has a beard), I write steamy, heartfelt stories featuring irresistible heroes and strong heroines who know exactly what they want.

"I write the kind of books that make you stay up way past your bedtime — and I'm not sorry about it."

The Books

Vodka and Pop Rocks Black Velvet and Lace Absinthe and Heart Beards and Books Beards and Bikinis

From the beloved Empire Records Series — where rockstars find love in the most unexpected places — to the fan-favorite Man of the Month Club, my books deliver everything romance readers crave: slow-burn tension, explosive chemistry, witty banter, and happily-ever-afters that feel earned.
