Pre-Order Signed Paperbacks for INKED IN WORDS Virtual Book Signing (Sept 18th-20th, 2026)
Why, hello there!
I'm Carmen Richter, an independent romance author who writes as a labor of love. I write angsty, steamy contemporary romance featuring swoony cinnamon roll heroes (and heroines!) who would do anything for the people they love. I live for the salty tears of my readers...but I promise to always give you a happily ever after with tons of cavity-inducing sweetness to make up for the heartache!
When I’m not writing, I love watching movies and attending concerts and live theater...or just staying in and binging Criminal Minds, Law and Order: SVU, or Supernatural for the zillionth time. I live in the Kansas City area with my boyfriend, Brett, and our fur baby, a cat named Mal.
I love interacting with my readers and will happily respond to all messages personally until I get uber famous and get a ton of them.
(Hey, a girl can dream, right?)
In addition to writing, I also have a business called CPR Publishing Services, which provides editing, blurb writing, graphic design, and interior formatting to fellow authors.
Please look around to learn more about me, my books, and CPR Publishing Services.
