Author bio

Susan Hayes was born in Victoria, Canada, and she has long been a west coast writer at heart. Her books move comfortably between science fiction romance and paranormal romance, but they tend to share a few things: high stakes, strong chemistry, and characters who have to fight hard for the lives they want.

She has described writing as both joy and escape, and that feels like a good key to her work. Hayes writes people into danger, then lets love, loyalty, and stubbornness do the rest. One book might involve cyborgs and corporate power struggles in deep space. The next might bring in vampires, witches, selkies, or a haunted antique bed.

Her first published romances appeared in 2012, including Arousal. From there, she kept widening the map. The Drift books opened up a much larger sci-fi universe full of space stations, freighter crews, soldiers, smugglers, and second chances. Her paranormal side grew through books like Defending Kyra, Saving Michelle, and Protecting Jazz, where the danger is closer to home but no less intense.

Space stations, dating agencies, haunted cabins, magical towns.

Readers who start with Double Down or Operation Phoenix usually stay for the larger Drift universe. That part of her backlist is packed with cyborgs, aliens, corporate trouble, and people trying to build a life on the edge of civilized space. If you prefer paranormal romance, Guardians and Hot and Hexy show another side of her style, one that mixes suspense, supernatural danger, and a lighter touch of humor.

She has also co-written The Omega Collective with Mina Carter. Those books drop readers onto an occupied Earth and build their romance out of invasion, resistance, and uneasy trust. It is a good example of how Hayes can keep the emotional core of a romance front and center, even when the world around it is falling apart.

Hayes likes high stakes, but she also likes fun.

That playful streak shows up in the details readers remember. She has shared that she has jumped out of airplanes on purpose and accidentally swum with sharks on the Great Barrier Reef. She has also picked up Passionate Plume awards for Wild Card and Operation Phoenix, which says a lot about how well her blend of heat, action, and story has landed with romance readers.

For many years she lived on the Canadian west coast. More recently, she moved to the southern coast of Australia, where she writes with her husband nearby, her coffee close at hand, and her step-lizards reportedly keeping an eye on the whole operation. If you want romance that moves fast, gets a little strange, and still leaves room for heart, Susan Hayes has plenty to explore.
