Leah Ashton

I'm RITA® and RUBY Award-winning author Leah Ashton, and I write action-packed, super-romantic suspense featuring strong heroines and deliciously heroic heroes.

I live in Perth, Western Australia with my gorgeous husband and two amazing daughters. I'm a dance mum/mom, a reader of all things (but have a soft spot for historical romance), and a lover of wonderful, rambling, chaotic conversations. 

I'm also not particularly good at social media, so I recommend joining my mailing list if you'd like regular updates - plus you'll also get access to a free Elite SWAT novella and lots of bonus scenes.
