Hazel Mayes writes cozy-with-heat romances set in the small town of Autumn Ridge, where stray cats have as much matchmaking talent as the locals. Her stories mix heart, humor, and a touch of spice—always centering characters who find love in unexpected places (often thanks to a whiskered accomplice). When she’s not writing, Hazel can be found spoiling her own furry crew, brewing strong coffee, or plotting her next Nine Lives Club romance.
