Biography
While still in her teens, Anna DePalo began her first novel. She wishes she could say that this early manuscript went on to receive numerous accolades and to bring her fame and fortune. Instead, that first attempt—well, all three pages of it—hit the trash heap.
Anna went on to live in Italy and England, graduate from Harvard, earn an advanced degree in political science, practice intellectual property law, and marry the man of her dreams.
One day, Anna decided to give fiction writing another try. This time she didn’t stop at three pages—or even ninety-three. That first finished manuscript, Having the Tycoon’s Baby, sold to Silhouette Books, became a best-seller and award-winner, and has been published in over a dozen countries to date.
These days, Anna has traded a lawyer’s navy-blue suits for a writer’s blue jeans and is given to toasting new story beginnings while ensconced in front of her home computer. Her books have won the Romantic Times Reviewers' Choice Award for Best First Series Romance, the Book Buyer’s Best, and the NJRW Golden Leaf. Her books have consistently hit the Borders Group best-seller list, as well as Nielsen BookScan's list of Top 100 best-selling romances. She is a past Vice President, Assistant Treasurer, Contest Coordinator, and Bylaws Committee member of the New York City Chapter of Romance Writers of America, and a member of New Jersey Romance Writers. She lives with her husband, son and daughter in Brooklyn.
