Ruth Mitchell strongly believes the world needs more happy endings. She aims to write “hospital waiting room” books, stories that cheer and distract readers when their world is crumbling, make them laugh and sigh, and finish with a little more hope. All of her books are love stories with plenty of banter, and sizzling chemistry, but no spice. (Just kissing.)
Ruth and her husband live in San Diego, where their four mostly-grown children visit often. She loves long rambling conversations, baking (she makes the best pie), hiking, and running (slowly) along the coasts and canyons of Southern California.

I initially planned on releasing Tolerable in November 2024 as a Christmas book. In my initial draft the subtitle was a Modern Christmas Pride and Prejudice. Though the action in the book lasts a full calendar year, it begins and ends with Christmas. ...more

"Love it so much. It was different enough from P&P that it didn’t feel forced and enough like it I can’t help but think this the contemporary adaptation. I really enjoyed the read. The characters and their flaws were relatable, believable, and forgiva" Read more of this review »
Desperate by Ruth       Mitchell
"A modern-day Pride and Prejudice spin off. Super cute story for Caroline Bingley. In P&P we know her as the annoying stuck up girl who tries to keep Darcy (or should I say his money?) for herself. In this telling we get to know a modern Caroline and " Read more of this review »

"4.5 stars

Ruth Mitchell does it again. I love how she turned snooty Caroline Bingley into the very lovable scowler, Caroline Bingham. I loved her romance with Wyatt Knox. I love a man who pines, and there is so much witty banter between the two of the" Read more of this review »

I gobbled up The Austen Sisters by @dees.reads in one sitting one lovely Sunday afternoon.

I absolutely adored this delightful modern retelling which imagines five of Jane Austen’s heroines as sisters.

“the only way to undo racism is to consistently identify and describe it—and then dismantle it. The attempt to turn this usefully descriptive term into an almost unusable slur is, of course, designed to do the opposite: to freeze us into inaction.”
