Kelly Farmer (she/her) has been writing romance novels since junior high. In those days, they featured high school quarterbacks named Brad who drove Corvettes and gals with names like Desireé because her own name is rather plain. Her stories since then have ranged from historical and contemporary male/female romances to light women’s fiction to LGBTQ+ romance. One theme remains the same: everyone deserves to have a happy ending.

When not writing, she enjoys being outside in nature, quoting from Eighties movies, listening to all kinds of music, and petting every dog she comes in contact with. All of these show up in her books. She also watches a lot of documentaries to satisfy her hunger for random bits of trivia. Kelly lives in the Chicago a ...more

It took me 20 years, double-digit manuscripts (not counting the ones I started but didn't finish!), and about 200 rejections before selling my first book. Believe in your work and your words. Find friends in the writing community, whether it's online or in person (or both!). If you need to take a break, take a break. If the ideas and voices in your head never go away, you'll come back to them when the time is right.

And have fun! You're creating worlds--how cool is that? :)(less)

Games where they face one another for the gold medal, particularly at the Olympics, are always exciting (and nerve-wracking as a fan). I thought it'd be a fun enemies to lovers story to have national team rivals become teammates in the pro women's league.

I was also inspired by real-life couples with cross-border romances. Several former members of the US and Canadian national teams are married. Watching those games must be nerve-wracking for them!

Unexpected Goals features Canadian goalie Maisy Goode and American goal scorer Jen Donato. They had a controversial run-in at the last Olympics that people are talking about. They pretend like they're over it, but the sparks fly when Jen joins the Boston Ice. Then they get to know one another, and the sparks fly for a different reason. ;)(less)
