About USA TODAY BESTSELLING AUTHOR arell RIVERS

  For as long as I can remember, I have been lost in a book. During my senior year in college, I picked up a romance novel … and instantly was hooked!

I started writing my first novel because the characters were screaming at me to do so. The story started coming out in my dreams and attacking me in the shower, so I took to the computer to shut them up. 

But they kept talking.

Born and raised in New Jersey, I have what some may call a “checkered past.” Prior to discovering my passion for writing romance, I practiced law, was a wedding and event planner, and even dabbled in marketing. I live with two adorable cats and a very supportive husband who doesn’t care that the bed isn’t made or dinner isn’t on the table. When not in my writing cave, I can be found making dinner in the InstantPot, working out with Shaun T, or hitting the beach.

I love interacting with my fans!! 

My home-away-from-my-imagination is my Facebook Group, Arell's Angels! There, I go live weekly, share sneak peeks into what I’m writing and work with the Angels on collaborative stories, authors come in and do takeovers on Sundays, and we all choose a hottie to greet us every morning for the month. Among other wild things! Hope you join us!

If Facebook isn't your jam, please check me out on Instagram or Twitter. And, of course, sign up for my E-newsletter to make sure to stay in the loop!
