I'm Emily Cruz, an author based in the PNW writing novels that I hope capture the feeling of having coffee with a good friend. My stories are all about love, laughter, and characters that I pour my heart into—hoping they'll resonate with you as deeply as they do with me.

In my free time, you'll find me with a coffee and a book, or spending quality time with my family and friends. These simple joys fuel my creativity and find their way into my stories.

When I’m not writing, I spend my days in nonprofit marketing and have a deep passion for working in that space.

I'm so glad you’re here. Sign up for my newsletter to stay in touch with upcoming book news, events, and all the fun things!
