About the Author
The Woman
Behind the Mayhem
Mila Ketteridge writes closed-door romantic comedies about small towns, stubborn people, and the particular madness of falling in love somewhere that still has a town hall bulletin board.
She believes that grumpy-sunshine dynamics are a love language, that every romcom needs at least one truly absurd misunderstanding, and that the best HEAs feel like exhaling after holding your breath for 300 pages.
When she’s not writing, she’s reading, re-reading, and loudly recommending books to people who didn’t ask.
