Born in California and raised in South Florida, Harper Kincaid moved around like a nomad with a bounty on her head for years. Along the way, she’s been a community organizer, a college historian lecturer, an art teacher, and even a professional matchmaker.

Taking the circuitous route means she’s got the kind of stories that are a hit at cocktail parties, along with a couple of graduate degrees she’s still paying off, and a well-honed BS detector she tempers with grace and humor. She is a USA TODAY & Amazon bestselling author and a licensed clinical psychotherapist.

Lauded by Kirkus Reviews, Publisher’s Weekly, BuzzFeed, Fresh Fiction, Booklist, The Washington Post, and Cozy Mystery Book Review, Harper Kincaid’s work has been published by Washington Parent Media, Writer’s Digest Magazine, Crime Reads, Entangled Publishing, Crooked Lane Press, Throat Punch Media, Zibby Books, and Medium.

When not writing, she’s binge-watching documentaries, reading with dogs tucked in close, making mixed media art, and being with the people who really get her.
