Meet Nikki Duncan, Author of Small-Town Romance and Healing Love Stories
If you love small-town romance novels or romantic women’s fiction about healing, Nikki Duncan delivers. Her books are rich with second chance romance, deep emotional journeys, and the kind of love that feels like coming home. Readers connect with her characters because they feel real and carry the scars—and hope—that come from life’s hardest moments.
Nikki’s writing journey began with a secret manuscript and a towering stack of Harlequins. That spark became more than twenty novels. Her debut, Sounds to Die By, launched a contemporary romance series that still resonates with readers looking for heart and healing.
She has shared pages with Shayla Black, Jaci Burton, Sylvia Day, and Cathryn Fox. Nikki’s career spans both traditional and indie publishing. Along the way, she’s also designed covers, built author websites, and hosted reader events that celebrate the power of story.
After taking time to care for her family, Nikki returned to writing with a clear mission. Her stories now reflect her passion for emotional healing romance, filled with strong female leads who grow, fall in love, and rise stronger. If you’re searching for heart-warming romance books that stay with you, you’ve found the right author.
Whether you’re reading Nikki for the first time or reconnecting with an old favorite, welcome.
