Michelle Reid spent several years wandering from job to job until she found her purpose with writing. “To this day I don’t know why,” she writes on her Goodreads page, “unless it was a natural progression from my never being without a book close by—often several—because books have always been an important part of my life for as far back as I can recall.”
Decades later, the prolific romance writer has 40 titles with Harlequin and has enjoyed tons of success, reaching the USA TODAY bestsellers list. Here are a few of our favorites from author Michelle Reid.
