Helen Johanna Lindsey was born 1952 in Germany, where her father, a soldier in the U.S. Army, was stationed. The family moved about a great deal when she was young. His father always dreamed of retiring to Hawaii, and after he passed away in 1964 Johanna and her mother settled there to honor him.

Johanna has not remarried after her husband’s death. Her older book jackets listed Lindsey as living in Hawaii; she now resides in Cape Cod. Lindsey wrote her first book, Captive Bride in 1977 “on a whim.” . The book was a success, as have been the 30+ novels which followed. By 2006, over 58 Million copies of her books have been sold worldwide, with translations appearing in 12 languages. Lindsey’s books span the various eras of history, including books set in the Middle Ages, Regency England, the American “Old West,” and the Viking era. She has even written a few futuristic romances. By far the most popular among her books are the stories about the Malory Family.
