Lucy Gilmore began her career in 2012 as a romance author and now also writes cozy mysteries as Tamara Berry and upmarket women’s fiction under her own name. A graduate of Eastern Washington University, she won the first-ever Lilian Jackson Braun Award at the Edgar Awards in 2023 for Buried in a Good Book. That same year, The Lonely Hearts Book Club was named a Fiction Pick of the Month by Barnes & Noble. She lives in the Pacific Northwest with her family and many pets.

Books will be for sale at the event in partnership with The Bookworm.
