  • Hi there! I'm Dasha :)

    I like grown female main characters and love interests with traits beyond growling. Relatable problems? Of course! Drama and internal angst? Duh! Happy endings? Always.

    While I’m a Midwestern girl at heart, I spent my twenties in New York City, working in finance and politics. Now, I live in a small town in England and enjoy hiking, popping into London, and writing about the lovely messiness of life.

    I released my debut novel Cooking from Scratch in February 2026.
