Nikki Duncan is an emotionally driven romance author who writes stories that heal as much as they sizzle. After writing her first book in secret while binging monthly Harlequins, she went on to earn her first publishing deal around a “campfire” of industry legends.
Over the years, she’s written over 20 novels across traditional and indie publishing, contributed to anthologies with authors like Shayla Black, Jaci Burton, Sylvia Day, and Cathryn Fox, and had her debut series sparked by a challenge: “Write me a blind hero who isn’t angsty.” She did just that, and Sounds to Die By was born.
A creative force beyond the page, Nikki’s also designed covers, built author websites, co-hosted reader parties (even ones crashed by EL James), and thrown herself into every corner of the book world. But after publishers folded and contracts imploded, she stepped back to rebuild her home. And herself.
When she’s not writing? You’ll find her curled up with tea, critiquing her own website design, or dreaming up the next story that just might change a life.
Reviews
Here’s what some readers have said:
Sounds to Die By has a pulsing, rhythmic beat that mixes Boston sensibility with Miami sound machine to create a passionate movement that sustains throughout the novel.
