Tasha Zima

Tasha Zima grew up trading romance novels with her mom like sacred artifacts, rereading dog-eared paperbacks until the spines gave out. She never expected to write one herself—until a small-town girl with too much pride and not enough sleep marched into her head and refused to leave. That girl became Katie, and However Much or Little poured out like a love song she didn’t know she’d been humming for years.

Tasha has been married since 1997 to her first real love—a man with enough patience to weather her moods, and enough insight to see her clearly, entirely, and always. His steady presence is the best part of her life (even if he can’t fold a fitted sheet to save his soul).

They live in a small town in New Brunswick with a dog, a cat, and an ever-expanding list of inside jokes. All three of her housemates are male, so she’s dramatically outnumbered and fighting the patriarchy one sarcastic eyebrow at a time. She is writing more books in the Ashby Lake series—a place where love is stubborn, slow-burning, and just wild enough to feel like home.
