Christmas Kisses (Oklahoma Brands)

New York Times and USA Today bestselling novelist Maggie Shayne has published 74 novels and novellas for five major publishers. She also spent a year writing for American daytime TV dramas The Guiding Light and As the World Turns and was offered the position of co-head writer of the former; a million-dollar offer she tearfully turned down. It was scary, turning down an offer that big. But her heart was in her books, and she’d found it impossible to do both.

Now, she is embarking on an exciting new leg of her publishing journey with dream-publisher, Oliver Heber Books and she’s having more fun than ever.

Maggie has three small-town contemporary series, The Texas Brand (9 books,) The Oklahoma Brands (6 books), and The McIntyre Men (6 books)

She has five paranormal romance series, including the groundbreaking 24-book Wings in the Night (Vampires,) The Immortals (4 books, Witches,) By Magic (4 books, Fay), The Portal (3 books, Witches) and now Wings in the Night: Fiona Files (1 book so far, Lycan and other.)

She is also the author of several romantic suspense and thriller series, including The Brown and de Luca Novels (8 books,) The Shattered Sisters (3 books) and Deep, Dark Secrets (6 books)

There are two stand-alone novels, Miranda’s Viking and Stargazer, and somewhere in the neighborhood of 13 novellas.

Maggie lives in a century-and-a-half old farmhouse in the rural hills of Cortland County NY with her husband Lance, who builds waterfalls for a living, and their dogs. There are always, always dogs.
