And she’ll have to decide if the connection they’ve forged is real enough to last.

Emma Cole (she/her) is Associate Editor for Harlequin Romantic Suspense. Previously, she was a freelance copyeditor for many years. In addition to romance, Emma loves horror, sci-fi, and speculative fiction, and her to-be-read pile of books never seems to shrink because she is forever buying more.

She is on the lookout for stories from underrepresented voices in the genre and is excited to find new and interesting projects for Romantic Suspense: quirky characters, small towns with big secrets, and stories that make her think, feel, and root for a good ending.
