She’s been enjoying everything New England has to offer ever since, and now that she’s acclimated to the snowy winters and finally found all the best places to get good sushi and tacos, she has zero regrets. You can usually find her on her treadmill at her desk, getting lost in fictional worlds involving hot athletes and the sassy women they fall hard for. When she stops writing she’s most likely to be found outdoors, preferably with a pair of skis or snowshoes strapped to her feet in winter, or at the lake or ocean in the summer. <img src="https://img.evbuc.com/https%3A%2F%2Fcdn.evbuc.com%2Fimages%2F1174052724%2F2312721413293%2F1%2Foriginal.20260105-224543?h=740&amp;w=1200&amp;auto=format%2Ccompress&amp;q=75&amp;sharp=10&amp;s=b19094007eda5bee77956c2fadc98099"> ABOUT THE AUTHOR Victoria Wilder is a contemporary romance author, which really means that she writes stories about falling in love and all of the messy, flirty, and sexy things that follow. She is an east coast girl, based in Connecticut. Which means she is always chasing the next season. Victoria is living a chaotic and big life with her husband, two kids and dog/3rd-kid, Linus. She believes in the power of a great story, and that love and romance are at the core of all the BEST ones!
