About Me

Karen Hawkins is an award-winning, USA Today and New York Times best-selling, stained-glass making, fun and sexy romance author! Having written over fifteen novels, Karen writes full time while sitting on the lanai of her house in Orlando while sipping Crystal Light Raspberry Drink, her two large brown dogs at her feet.

Karen's first contemporary, TALK OF THE TOWN, exploded onto the shelves last Nov. 18th to great acclaim! Coming next, in mid-July and late August, are the final two books in the MacLean Curse Series, SLEEPLESS IN SCOTLAND and THE LAIRD WHO LOVED ME!
