About Lucy Carol

Lucy Carol is a bestselling romantic comedy fiction author best known for the “Madison Cruz” series of novels. Just like her lead in the series, the author is just a quirky and likable protagonist who can never sit still when there is some music playing. She is also a huge lover of flowers, martinis and avocados and a good hair day for her is when her curls are not frizzing. Her dining table is typically full of colorful jigsaw puzzles as she finds this is the best way she finds to wind down at the end of her day. While she can always turn out the light in her home office and go for a walk, she says that working on jigsaw puzzles is the thing that calms her mind. Rising to prominence with the Publication Order of Cozy Mystery Holidays Books series, Lucy Carol has since expanded their repertoire to include numerous successful works across various genres. Their writing style, characterized by compelling narratives and memorable characters, has earned them a dedicated global readership with millions of fans worldwide.
