Mindy Mejia
My name is Mindy Mejia and I’m a writer. I write because, ever since I was six years old, my favorite game has been pretend. My life doesn't have symmetry, theme, symbolism, or meditated beauty and I gravitate toward these things like a houseplant to the sun. I love the perfect words; I love how 'fierce' and 'confounded' and 'swagger' look on the page and how my chest expands when I read them. I write because I believe in the reality of my fantasies, the truth in my fabrications. I’ve always had stories sneaking around my head, thrillers like LEAVE NO TRACE and EVERYTHING YOU WANT ME TO BE, and sometimes I inhabit those stories more than my own life. (Best not to mention that last part to my husband, kids, or boss.)

Hi! I'm Laura.

I write contemporary romance novels set in the fictional North Carolina mountain town of Galway.
In my stories I want you to get to know the town and the characters well: what brings them together, what holds them apart, what they want and need. I want you to root for them and care about them, even when--like the people we love--they frustrate you. My stories may not be the best thing for you if you're in a don't-care-about-this-other-stuff-let's-cut-straight-to-the-sex-scenes mood. But if you're into yearning and mutual pining, I'm your girl.
