Holly S. Roberts is a USA TODAY Bestselling Author who crafts gripping, edge-of-your-seat stories. Holly’s works range from thrilling tales of survival and suspense to pulse-pounding horror. She began in the romance genre because she needed happy endings. Her talent also led to traditional publishing success with Hachette Books, one of the industry’s Big Five publishers, writing thrillers.

Her life story has earned two major movie/television options, one with Rocklin and Faust, Producers (Academy Award Best Picture, Spotlight), and DreamStreet Entertainment. Someday her dynamic, heart-grabbing story will see the big screen. The screenplay for BREACH, a shark thriller, is currently in development. 

Before becoming a full-time author, Holly spent her early years as a bookstore owner, immersing herself in the literary world and discovering the power of traveling the world through the books she read. She then transitioned into law enforcement, serving as a police officer and eventually a homicide and sex crimes detective, where she honed her understanding of the human psyche and the raw emotions of life and death. These experiences now enrich her novels, lending them authenticity and emotional depth.

Holly’s books, including BreachSanctuary, Rabid, and Only Girl Alive plus others, explore the darker corners of the human condition while delivering high-stakes, thrilling action. Her shark-themed novel has captured the imagination of readers, with Breach and its highly anticipated sequel Depth for their intensity and intricate character development. 

Holly currently resides in Arizona, and when not writing, you’ll find her in the garden, hiking with her rottweiler, Max, or reading novels. Her love for storytelling, combined with her diverse background, continues to make her a distinctive voice in modern fiction.
