About Emmy-Lou

Hi! I’m guessing you’re visiting my page because you love everything romance! You came to the right place, I love romance so much, I write it!

I’m a wife, mom of six, and grandmother of one, who splits my time between the stunning landscapes of New Zealand, Canada, Australia, and the US. Despite that whirlwind life, which includes managing a lively kitty named Cass, I follow my passion for romance by writing my own happy-ever-after sweet contemporary romances.

As a teenager, I’d sneak under my blankets with a flashlight, devouring romance novels, and today, I do the same with my Kindle and Kobo, not to mention a very well-used library card!

I played at writing for years, but it wasn’t until 2015 that I decided to follow my dream of becoming an author. Fast forward nine years, and I have sixteen drafts of one series, and several other drafts of standalone novels, all sitting there, collecting dust because I have been too nervous to publish. This year though, my daughter said, “C’mon mom, we’re fed up with telling everyone our mom’s a writer and not being able to show them anything… it’s time to make it happen, and get it done!”

I did. And now, I have the first of my Sweetheart Falls series, Finding Mr. Right, out in the world. With Finding Mr. Rekindled due to follow at the end of this month.

The Devereaux family’s tales are centered around their home, Heaven Sent, and capture the essence of love, community, and family.

When I’m not writing, I enjoy rugby, reading, dabbling in genealogy, and rearranging my home (procrastination, I know, but fun nonetheless —and much to the chagrin of my kids and husband). Dive into the heartfelt romances of Sweetheart Falls and fall in love with my world of Sweetheart Falls, where every story promises a cozy escape and a happy ending.
