Colleen Hoover

Colleen Hoover (born 11 December 1979 in Sulphur Springs, Texas) is an American novelist of romance and contemporary fiction. She self-published her first novel, Slammed, in 2012, and reached a very wide readership with It Ends with Us (2016) and its sequel It Starts with Us (2022), the thriller Verity (2018) and the three-part serial Never Never, written with Tarryn Fisher. Her books are published in the United States by Atria and have been translated into some forty languages; several of them returned to the bestseller lists years after publication through word of mouth on social media.
