Adrienne deWolfe’s novels repeatedly show up as bestselling titles on Amazon.com and BN.com. In addition to writing wildly popular, award-winning fiction, Adrienne is a journalist, college fiction teacher, and book-writing coach. Her publication debut occurred with Bantam’s release of Texas Outlaw, the first book in her bestselling Wild Texas Nights series. Texas Outlaw broke industry records in paperback when it was nominated for two Rita Awards by the published authors of Romance Writers of America (RWA). Since that time, each of Adrienne’s five paperback Romance novels has earned distinctions from reviewers and readers. Three of her heroes won Knight in Shining Silver (K.I.S.S.) Awards from Romantic Times Magazine, and a fourth hero won the Avon Romance Reader’s Poll for favorite Romance hero. Not to be outdone, Adrienne’s heroines also rate high among readers, who have recognized her with the Honey of a Heroine Award (West Houston Chapter, RWA) and the Cameo Award for Strong Woman Characters (Calico Trails Magazine). The readers of Calico Trails also named Adrienne’s third book, Texas Wildcat, the Best Historical Romance of the Year. As eReader devices gained in popularity, Adrienne turned her attention to writing books directly for ebook distribution. These titles include her bestselling non-fiction series, Secrets to Getting Your Romance Novel Published, and her Western Historical Romance, Seduced by an Angel (Book #3 in the Velvet Lies series). Since that time, the ebook edition of Texas Outlaw (Book 1, Wild Texas Nights) rose to #1 on Amazon.com’s Top 100 Lists for Historical Romance and Western Historical Romance. Texas Lover (Book 2, Wild Texas Nights) rose to #2 on those two Amazon lists. The entire Wild Texas Nights series remained in Amazon’s top 100 lists for Historical and Western Historical Romance for approximately 7 months. Adrienne’s two other #1 bestselling ebooks: Scoundrel for Hire (Book 1, Velvet Lies) rose to #1 on BN.com’s Nook list for Historical Romance. It reached #11 on Amazon’s Top 100 Lists for Historical Romance and Western Historical Romance. Tin-Stars and Troublemakers (an anthology of Western Historical Romances, featuring Texas Outlaw) rose to #1 on two of Amazon’s Top 100 Lists for Western Historical Romance: the Book List and the Kindle List.
