About C.A. Szarek



USA Today Bestselling, award winning author of romantic suspense and epic fantasy romance, C.A. loves to dabble in different genres. If it’s a good story, she’ll write it, no matter where it seems to fit!


She’s a hopeless romantic and always will be. Risking it all for Happily Ever After is what she lives by!


She’s originally from Ohio, but got to Texas as soon as she could. She’s happily married and has a bachelor’s degree in Criminal Justice.


She's always writing, and helps small business owners by writing their websites, and she loves it!


Chrissy, in Real Life...



When I’m not buried in a book—either writing one or editing someone else’s—you’ll usually find me with a cup of coffee in hand (the stronger, the better) and a furbaby at my side.


I’m a USA Today Bestselling Author with a deep love for storytelling, especially when it involves magic, romance, and characters who fight hard for their happy endings.


Writing isn’t just my job—it’s who I am. Editing, too. I’ve worked with countless authors to shape their stories, and I truly love helping good books become great ones.


At home, I’m lucky to be surrounded by chaos of the best kind—three rescues who run the house and keep me grounded. Milo is my Great Pyrenees, big-hearted and gentle. Mia, my wild-child Pyrador, brings the energy and endless affection. And Millie, my tuxedo cat, is the queen of the castle with strong opinions about everything (especially lap space).


I’m a tattoo-loving, travel-chasing, coffee-obsessed book nerd—and I wouldn’t have it any other way.
