A three-time RWA RITA Award nominee, nine-time Romantic Times Award nominee and 2006 RT Award winner, Leslie Kelly has become known for her delightful characters, sparkling dialogue, and outrageous humor. Since the publication of her first book in 1999, Leslie has gone on to pen more than thirty sassy, sexy romances for Harlequin Temptation, Blaze, and HQN.
Leslie will be taking on a new writing challenge in 2009. Coming next summer, from NAL books, are three dark romantic thrillers, published under the pseudonym Leslie Parrish. A new website devoted to Leslie's darker side will debut in late 2008...be sure to watch for it!
Leslie lives in Maryland with her hubby Bruce--her real-life romance hero--their three daughters and two spoiled-rotten dogs.
