About this author

About

Lisa Tawn Bergren is the best-selling, award-winning author of over 35 books, with more than 2 million copies sold. She recently finished a teen series called River of Time (WATERFALL, CASCADE and TORRENT) and soon will release a follow-up e-novella called BOURNE. She's currently writing a New Adult series called The Grand Tour, and the first release is GLAMOROUS ILLUSIONS (June 2012).

Lisa’s time is split between managing home base, writing, consulting and freelance editing (with a little speaking here and there). She’s married to Tim, a liturgical sculptor, graphic designer and musician. They have three kids–Olivia (16), Emma (13) and Jack (9).

All five of the Bergrens make their home in Colorado Springs, Colorado.

“Courage is not the absence of fear, but the decision that something is more important than fear.”
Lisa Tawn Bergren, Waterfall

“Lia aimed shifted and waited watching one man peek out time and time again. She let her arrow fly anticipating his next peek at us and it pierced his eye.

“Okay that’s just going to make ’em mad ” I said.

“Three hundred and ninety-two ” she said to Luca tossing her braid over her shoulder and taking aim again.

“Saints in heaven ” he said to me rolling his eyes “how much deeper in love can I yet fall?”
Lisa Tawn Bergren, Cascade

“Fantasizing about an Italian hottie was far better than my normal dreams.”
Lisa Tawn Bergren, Waterfall

Xia I just finished the River of Time series and absolutely loved them. They were amazing! I finished the series in two days. I was so sad when I finished Torrent, but I'm really looking forward to Tributary.
