ABOUT TARA ELLIS





Tara Ellis, an Amazon best selling author, lives in a small, rural town in Washington State set in the beautiful Pacific Northwest. She enjoys the quiet lifestyle with her two grown kids and small dogs. Tara was a firefighter/EMT, and worked in the medical field for many years, before committing herself to write young adult and middle-grade novels (almost) full-time. 

She grew up on sci-fi and has since found a love for conspiracy theories. This background, combined with a wild imagination, has led to The Forgotten Origins Trilogy. The first book in the series, Infected, was a finalist in the IAN 2015 Book of the Year Awards, was awarded Honorable Mention in the 2015 Reader's Favorite Book Awards, and voted as 'Top 50 Indie Books of 2014'.

Her on-going middle-grade mystery series, The Samantha Wolf Mysteries, has hit the best-seller status on Amazon in the children's detective story genre several times and continues to grow in popularity. The engaging, fun stories herald back to the days of Nancy Drew and Trixie Beldon, and several readers have commented that the series is of the same caliber. These are clean reads that are suitable for the whole family to read together and are also part of the Kindle Unlimited program.


ALSO WRITING AS TARA MEYERS




At nineteen, I was recruited into a secret government program, where my memory was erased .. wait -- that's the outline for a potential book. Sorry, my real biography isn't quite as interesting, but I'll give it a shot!

I live in the Pacific Northwest, and when I'm not writing, I'm out beach combing with my dogs for sea glass, or hiking in the rugged Cascade Mountains. It's the perfect backdrop to fuel my creative genius. *rubs hands together evilly*

You'll find all my adult romantic suspense and cozy mysteries here, and on my OTHER profile (secret identity ;)) Tara Ellis, I keep my middle grade and young adult books. Check them out, You might like those, too!

  2. Hi Tara, just found you today online. Really enjoyed reading about who you are. Your honesty is refreshing. Love the backdrop on this blog. One of my favorite places to visit. We share many things in common. We both live in the Seattle area, love reading and writing. We enjoy nature photography as well. I to raised my kids on my own. My first wife died in her twenties. I remarried many years after I raised my kids. Now I enjoy writing and looking forward to the next time I can visit the park. Would love to hear from you.
