HOPE TARR is a writer of Historical and Contemporary Romances. She "earned a Master’s Degree in Developmental Psychology and a Ph.D. in Education only to discover she didn’t want to teach people or analyze them. She wanted to write about them!" (Word Wenches). She was first published in November of 2000 and her first book was A Rogue's Pleasure. It was later nominated for a Romantic Times Reviewers Choice Award for Best First Historical Romance. She took a six year break from writing to pursue her animal interests, but returned to romance writing in 2006. She has a trilogy of history novels, for the Men of Roxbury House, which is a series about brothers. Her first Blaze title was The Haunting and was published in April of 2007. She charted new territory with Bound To Please as the first Historical within the Blaze line.
