About Me

The Legend Hunters are coming

“Spine-tingling adventure and sexy secrets! Robyn DeHart’s vibrant characters sweep the reader into a clever and sensual romp that is not to be missed.” Julia London, NYT Bestselling Author of The Book of Scandal

There is a gentleman's club near St. James St., a luxurious one with all the accoutrements one would expect from such a fine establishment; fine liquors, exotic cigars, gaming and a comfortable chair in which to read the daily papers. Solomon's is by invitation only and those invitations are not extended without exceedingly careful consideration. Because in this club is a secret room where secret meetings occur. And in these secret meetings some of London's finest gentlemen gather to discuss their passions; their obsessions.

Some are scholars, some collectors, some treasure-hunters, but each of them are after the find of the century. Meet the Legend Hunters...

Seduce Me, the first book in the Legend Hunters series hits bookstores everywhere, August 2009. Check the new www.RobynDeHart.com for more information.

I'm one of those writers who always knew that she wanted to be a writer. It took me a while, however, to figure out precisely what I wanted to write. Reading Kathleen Woodiwiss’ “A Rose in Winter” sealed the deal for me and I’ve been reading and writing romance ever since. I should have known I was destined for this when my Barbies insisted on hosting elaborate masquerade parties, complete with stolen kisses in the moonlight.
Let’s see...where I came from. I was born the youngest of three kids (read spoiled!) and raised in Central Texas, in the beautiful Hill Country, right smack-dab between Austin and San Antonio. My parents were high school sweethearts and married a week after my mother graduated – they both needed their parents’ permission to marry since they were so young. So I blame them and their amazing marriage for the fact that I’m a hopeless romantic and so darned picky in my own love life.
Somewhere along the line, I graduated from college with a degree in Sociology, only after completing an internship with none other than award-winning author, Pamela Morsi. It was one of the coolest experiences of my life and I learned more about the writing business than I could have hoped.
After college I worked a myriad of jobs: Computer Software Trainer, Recruiter, Administrative Assistant. But no matter what my day job, I come home to my real job and click, click, click away on my computer and get lost in my imaginary world where justice always prevails and the girl always gets her guy! It’s the coolest job in the world.
I’m a member of four great RWA chapters, Austin RWA, SMRW, Kiss of Death and Hearts Through History. I'm married to the most amazingly supportive man who makes me laugh every day. He's so proud of my career, and loves to tell people, "My wife is a romance novelist." We live in Tennessee, where my husband is a professor at a small Liberal Arts university.
We have two very spoiled cats who are of no help at all when it comes to my writing, although they sometimes nap in the same room where I sit diligently working.
And now the writing dream is complete. I had four releases with Avon Books and have recently moved to Grand Central Publishing. I'm launching a new series with them called the Legend Hunters, the first book will hit stores in summer 2009.
