Rachel Esterline writes stories about morally gray protectors and strong heroines who fight for found family—crossing lines in the haze of smoke, betrayal, and temptation. She has published two motorcycle club romantic suspense novels. Reaper & The Lioness and Damascus & The Wildfire are interconnected standalone novels in the Lone Star Mavericks MC series.
Her love affair for books started in grade school, but she’s spent most of her life telling other people’s stories as a PR and marketing professional. Eventually, fiction fought its way back to the front of the line. Now, Rachel blends her knack for gritty realism and sharp dialogue with her fascination for characters who live in the gray. Her novels dig into themes of loyalty, vengeance, and what it means to rebuild when life takes everything.
Rachel is based in the Lansing area in Michigan with her partner-in-crime of more than twenty years, Jeremy, and their two rescue dogs—Kimber and Ranger—whose wild spirits and stubborn loyalty wind their way into every canine character she writes.
She has two degrees from Central Michigan University—a bachelor’s in Integrative Public Relations and a master’s in Higher Education Administration—and her Accreditation in Public Relations from the Public Relations Society of America.
You can find her writing beside a crackling fire or in a corner booth of the nearest dive bar with a glass of whiskey.
