Nalini Singh

Nalini Singh is a New Zealand author of Indian descent who is one of the most popular and prolific writers of paranormal romance and romantic suspense in the world. Her books combine richly imagined fantasy worlds with deeply emotional love stories, and she has built a devoted global readership with her Psy-Changeling, Guild Hunter, and Rock Kiss series. Born in Fiji, Singh grew up in New Zealand and has also lived in Japan, France, and England. She holds degrees in biology, English, and law from the University of Auckland, though she has been a full-time writer for many years. The Psy-Changeling series, beginning with Slave to Sensation (2006), is her most ambitious work — set in a future world divided between three races: the emotionless Psy, the animal-shapeshifting Changelings, and ordinary humans. The series spans over twenty novels and multiple spin-offs, with Allegiance of Honor among the major entries, and is praised for its intricate worldbuilding, its exploration of emotion and power, and its deeply satisfying romances. The Guild Hunter series, beginning with Angels' Blood, is set in a world ruled by archangels and their vampire servants, and follows the hunter Elena Deveraux and the archangel Raphael. The Rock Kiss series and the Hard Play series are contemporary romances set in the world of New Zealand rugby. Singh has won numerous awards including the RITA Award from the Romance Writers of America. She has sold millions of books worldwide and has a passionate and engaged fanbase. The audiobook editions of Singh's series are hugely popular, with narrators bringing her richly imagined worlds and passionate love stories vividly to life. Her books and audiobooks are essential for romance readers who love paranormal worldbuilding, emotional depth, and series they can lose themselves in for weeks.
