Vanessa Westermann writes mysteries that combine the heartbreak of murder with the joy of feel-good romance. Homicide investigations that expose the heart of the crime, but end with a happily ever after.

Vanessa holds an M.A. in English Literature, as well as a Bachelor of Education, and enjoys teaching creative writing. She is a member of International Thriller Writers (ITW) and Crime Writers of Canada (CWC).

When she’s not searching Canada’s cottage country for her next small-town setting, she’s drafting a romantic mystery from the comfort of an Adirondack chair.
