Emilie Richards is the author of more than fifty novels. She began writing in 1983 after the birth of her fourth child and a move to New Orleans, Louisiana. Her first book, Brendan's Song, named in honor of the baby who was often on her lap as she wrote it, was published by Silhouette Romance in 1985. Richards won the 1994 RITA® in the Long Contemporary category for her novel Dragonslayer.

Emilie and family have lived in Virginia, Louisiana, Florida, California, Arkansas, Ohio and Pennsylvania. A four month family sabbatical in Australia turned into six books for Silhouette with Australian or New Zealand settings. Ten years later she returned for three months with her husband, Michael, and Brendan to research Beautiful Lies, her third book for Mira.

Emilie currently lives in Northern Virginia and not surprisingly Virginia is a "character" in many of her recent novels. Despite the family's frequent moves Emilie is delighted that her children (along with a terrific son and daughter-in-law) are still within reach, and not in Australia as they so often threatened.

In addition to traveling, Emilie is an enthusiastic gardener who is quickly turning her suburban yard into a cottage garden and a quilter who can't quite sew a straight seam. She has recently released a non-fiction book on quilting and quilting is a motif in her recent novels.

She published twelve novels for the Silhouette Romance imprint.
