Ashley is a mom to three teenagers whom she homeschools, a former military spouse, and the proud wife of a lineman, who is her very own real-life hero. She lives in a small Missouri town with her family, a lovable but chaotic Boxer, and a bearded dragon with a big personality.

When she's not writing, Ashley can be found curled up on the couch in her pajamas with a cup of hot coffee and a spicy romance novel, or enjoying date nights with her husband-the inspiration behind many of her fictional heroes.

Ashley loves to write small-town romances filled with heart, healing, family, and just the right amount of spice. Ashley believes in love that feels like home, characters who overcome the odds, and stories that stay with you long after the last page.
