Renee Ryder

When Renee Ryder isn't reading romance novels, she's writing or translating them. She likes flawed characters and mold-breaking plots that pull on the threads of a relationship to unravel them before the reader. Her new book Designs of the Heart is the first of the two part Back and Forth series.

Renee and her husband live out their real life romance in the sun and fog of California, where she spends her spare time dreaming up their own trips and adventures.
