About Me


Hi there. Welcome to the official website for Ophelia London. I write stories about first loves, last loves and everything in between. I think you're cuter than a cupcake.

baby bio:
Ophelia London is the USA Today Bestselling author of kissing books like: FALLING FOR HER SOLDIER, SOMEDAY MAYBE, DEFINITELY MAYBE IN LOVE, ABBY ROAD, LOVE BITES and the Perfect Kisses series by Entangled Bliss. She belongs to RWA and DARA. 

official author bio:
USA Today bestselling author Ophelia London was born and raised among the redwood trees in beautiful northern California. Once she was fully educated, she decided to settle in Florida, but her car broke down in Texas and she’s lived in Dallas ever since. A cupcake and treadmill aficionado (obviously those things are connected), she spends her time watching arthouse movies and impossibly trashy TV, while living vicariously through the characters in the books she writes. Ophelia is the author of SOMEDAY MAYBE; DEFINITELY, MAYBE IN LOVE; ABBY ROAD; the Perfect Kisses series including: FALLING FOR HER SOLDIER, PLAYING AT LOVE, SPEAKING OF LOVE, and MAKING WAVES; and the upcoming Sugar City series for Entangled’s Bliss line. Visit her at ophelialondon.com. But don’t call when The Vampire Diaries (or Dawson’s Creek) is on.

loooooong bio:
Hey there. Nice to see you. You might know me as Ophelia London, chick writer. Born and raised in California, my car broke down on my way to Florida, and I've lived in beautiful and bustling Dallas ever since.

During daytime hours, I am a marketing department's Head Babysitter, but when the sun goes down, the laptop comes out. Writing stories is way fun, so I tend to do a lot of it. For example, my new adult novel, DEFINITELY, MAYBE IN LOVE, is a modern day retelling of Pride & Prejudice set at Stanford University...chuck full of camping, argyle and loads and loads of kissing. There's also ABBY ROAD. It's about a rock star chick who takes a vacation to Florida to hide from the paparazzi, but instead means the hunky owner of a surf shop. Shenanigans insue. Oh, and there's my sweet romance series, Perfect Kisses, including the #1 Bestseller in Military Romance FALLING FOR HER SOLDIER, MAKING WAVES, PLAYING AT LOVE, and SPEAKING OF LOVE.

Until I find true love, the perfect cupcake and/or become a famous pop star, I’ll keep writing about it.

I love great books, sweet treats, complicated sweaters, live music, looking at Adam Levine, and all things Hitchcock. I can dwell for hours over changing a comma to a semi-colon.  Pretty shoes make me happy, as do pretty cupcakes and chocolate in general. I loathe writing query letters. It sometimes takes me a week to read a 250-page novel because I’ll read a sentence, smile, think about it, love it, then reread the entire page to relive the full effect. I dream about being at the beach practically every day but love being cozy at home most of all. I don’t deny that I’m not cool enough for Coldplay but a bit too cool for Mandy Moore—both are all over my iPod. I’ve attended 20+ shows at London’s West End, and I saw (in the theater, first run) "Star Wars, the Phantom Menace" 16 times. Most days you can find me wishing I was wearing a fabulous hat or singing karaoke in my car. I find Ryan Seacrest both fascinating and repulsive. I firmly believe that my conflicting personality makes me charming; as does my sarcasm.

I love to hear from readers. Drop me a line at london (dot) ophelia (at) yahoo (dot) com.
