D. Hartigan writes steamy contemporary romance filled with spark, heat, wit, and heart, where powerful men fall first, and the women they love change everything.
Before turning to fiction, she spent many years as a journalist, a career that exposed her to a remarkable range of people and places that now inspire her storytelling.
Hartigan’s stories unfold in richly connected worlds where the settings are vivid and real and the characters emotionally layered. Her heroes are confident, accomplished men who may be a little too used to getting their way. Her heroines are intelligent, driven, and building lives of their own. The result is romance where attraction ignites quickly and happily-ever-after is always worth the fight.
An avid reader as a child, she stepped away from books during a demanding career and returned later in life as a writer, an unexpected full-circle joy.
Hartigan has lived in the U.S. and Canada and traveled widely throughout North and South America, Europe, the Caribbean, and South Asia. She lives with her husband, an athlete with legendary patience for a romance writer, and enjoys hiking, travel, and life with their ridiculously spoiled Bernedoodle.
