Laurie Ellen Park

Laurie Ellen Park writes contemporary women’s fiction and romantic comedies about reinvention, second chances, and the surprising places love finds us. Her debut novel is set in Puerto Rico, where sun‑drenched landscapes, sharp‑tongued friendships, and unexpected romance collide with a woman’s search for who she’s becoming next.

Before turning to fiction, Laurie Ellen practiced law and worked in corporate strategy and communications, experiences that continue to inform her voice‑driven, emotionally grounded storytelling. Her work blends humor with heart, exploring the messy intersections of love, ambition, and identity.

When she’s not writing, Laurie Ellen can usually be found near the ocean, planning her next trip, or convincing herself that one more chapter won’t hurt. She lives in Southern California with her husband and their two dogs.
