Tarryn Fisher (born 1983) is a South African-born novelist based in Seattle, Washington, United States. [2] She writes primarily in the romance, thriller, and new adult genres, and is best known for her New York Times best selling novels The Wives and The Wrong Family. [3] [4]
Early life and career
Tarryn Fisher was born in Johannesburg, South Africa, to a White South African family. [1] [5] Her father, Dennis Fisher, was a horse trainer and his wife, Cynthia Fisher, was a schoolteacher. The family left South Africa and moved to Broward County, Florida in 1985 when Fisher was 3 years old. [1] She currently resides in Seattle, Washington, with her husband and children. [6]
Fisher self-published her first novel, The Opportunist, through Amazon. Fisher's two most recent novels The Wives and The Wrong Family, were published by Harlequin Enterprises, a division of HarperCollins. [7] Both titles made appearances on the New York Times Best Seller list. [8] [9] In a 2019 review of The Wives, Kirkus Reviews described the novel as "all a bit over the top, but Fisher is a slick writer who keeps a tight rein on her lightning-fast plot." [10]
