Now a New York Times bestselling author, she’s won hearts with her witty dialogue, relatable characters, and stories that leave readers happier than when they started.
The Making of Sarah Adams
Growing up in the vibrant city of Nashville, Sarah Adams was surrounded by music, warmth, and Southern hospitality—elements that now infuse her novels. As a self-proclaimed coffee addict and British history nerd, she spent her childhood filling blank journals with stories, dreaming of becoming an author. However, life as a wife and mother of two daughters took precedence until those quiet naptime moments sparked her writing career. Her debut novel, To Con a Gentleman, was born from a desire to create something just for herself, marking the start of a prolific journey.
Sarah Adams’s Unforgettable Stories
Adams’s novels are a delightful blend of humor, heart, and romance, often set against the backdrop of small-town life. Her When in Rome series, a TikTok sensation, showcases her knack for crafting chemistry-filled stories. The first book, When in Rome, follows a pop star finding love with a grumpy small-town baker, while its sequel, Practice Makes Perfect, dives into a florist’s quest for love with a tattooed bodyguard. Her It Happened in Nashville series, including The Cheat Sheet, explores friends-to-lovers tropes with NFL stars and dance studio owners, earning praise for its laugh-out-loud banter.
Adams’s writing style is approachable yet evocative, with themes of second chances, personal growth, and the joy of human connection. Her characters—like Bree Camden in The Cheat Sheet, who navigates the friend zone with an NFL heartthrob—are flawed, funny, and deeply relatable.
