Ava Watson is a hopeless romantic who struggled to understand why thriller stories never included swoony romance subplots while growing up. As a writer by night and psychiatric social worker by day, advocating for mental health is not just a passion of hers, but a part of her everyday life. When she’s not writing about millennials trying to find themselves while falling in love, she’s lugging her husband and dogs around on impromptu road trips, watching ghost-hunting shows while claiming she doesn't believe in the paranormal, and haunting the nearest bookstore.

Ava is represented by Bibi Lewis at Ethan Ellenberg Literary Agency.
