Meet Deb Goodman

Deb Goodman’s obsession with the written word started at age three, when she realized the old-timey newsprint wallpaper in her family’s bathroom had actual words on it. The only problem? By the time she learned to read a couple of years later, the wallpaper had been replaced with something else—boring, non-worded wallpaper—and to this day, she still doesn’t know what it said.

Deb wrote her first book in the first grade—something about friends learning to share and care—and spent far more of her childhood in her own little imaginary world and in the worlds of the books she read than in the real one.

She graduated from Brigham Young University with a Bachelor’s in English. She and her husband and four children live in Utah. They like to watch movies and football together, bake treats on Sundays, and do slightly insulting, pretend voices for their little shorkie, Mavis.

Writing sweet romance comes naturally to Deb, since she believes love makes the world go ’round. In her mind, there’s nothing better than reading and writing about how two people fall in love.
