Trish Ryan

Hi. I'm Trish. I write and speak about romance and relationships, faith and life, and the strange ways God takes people and makes us into family.

I live near Boston with an astonishingly great husband I prayed really, really hard for and thought I’d never find. We’ve adopted two awesome kids - we call them The Cherubs. They’re 14 and 11, which means we’re starting our parenting career at the middle school level. We’ve also adopted a giant, chubby dog from a rescue organization. And we co-founded a Vineyard church in Cambridge called Greenhouse Mission (www.GreenhouseMissionChurch.org)

I can’t really spell and I’m intimidated by lettuce. I watch more reality television than the experts advise; I consider it “research.” (For what, I’m not sure.)

I hang out on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram. Sometimes I blog, especially when I have books to recommend.

A bit about my books…

He Loves Me, He Loves Me Not: A Memoir of Finding Faith, Hope, and Happily Ever After is the story of how I searched for the right guy…and ended up finding the right God. (And, thankfully, the right guy)

A Maze of Grace: A Memoir of Second Chances, is the sequel. It’s about figuring out how to be married and happy at the same time.
