When Ann Garvin writes a new novel, she not only wins devoted readers, she earns throngs of new friends. Honest, endearing and unabashedly fun, Garvin has a special gift for writing about women who do too much in a world that asks too much from them, and readers find Garvin’s characters to be genuine and utterly relatable.

Her newest book, There’s No Coming Back from This (Lake Union Publishing), revolves around a woman who stows away on the set of a major motion picture and has to solve a crime to keep her secret.

“An Ann Garvin novel is like curling up beside your favorite, wittiest friend and laughing and crying all at once about the hilarity and heartbreak of life. In classic Ann Garvin style, There’s No Coming Back from This is an engaging look at motherhood, friendship and dating that will remind readers everywhere it’s never too late to start over ― or find out where we’re truly meant to be,” says Kristy Woodson Harvey, New York Times bestselling author of The Wedding Veil.

Ann is the USA Today bestselling author of five funny and sad novels, including I Thought You Said This Would Work, I Like You Just Fine When You’re Not Around, The Dog Year and On Maggie’s Watch.

A member of the Erma Bombeck Writers’ Workshop faculty, she teaches creative writing at Drexel University in its low-residency master’s of fine arts program and lives in Wisconsin with her anxious and overly protective dog Peanut.

She is the founder of the multiple award-winning Tall Poppy Writers and is dedicated to helping authors find readers and vice versa.
