Features Described by those who know her best as perky, quirky and effervescent, USA Today Best-Selling author Nicole Leiren likes to have fun -- in life, with her characters and, of course, her readers. She admits to being sassy (just ask her mother!) and inspiration for her characters are drawn from the real-world heroes and heroines she meets while traversing the country. Nicole enjoys sharing the love, laughter, mystery, and Facebook Street Team/ Leirens Lovelies occasionally a touch of the mayhem she forces her characters to endure—all for the reader’s pleasure! Her BookBub real-world heroes and heroines will keep you turning Twitter the pages until you reach the whodunit or happily ever after (usually both!) Born in the crossroads of America (that’s Indiana in case you weren’t sure LOL), Nicole now lives in the Land of Lincoln with her hubby and a cranky, old cat named Bonsie.
