About Cassandra

Cassandra Cavanaugh is a contemporary romance novelist based in the Western United States, where she lives with her "swoon-worthy" husband. She adores crafting toe-curling romance stories that deliver plenty of heat without pushing the boundaries too far – just enough to make readers fan their faces, but nothing that would make you slam the book shut if family walked in (as she jokes, "depending on your mom").
When not writing or reading love stories, Cassandra enjoys binge-watching Netflix, movie nights with her husband, and traveling the world. She is active on social media and loves engaging with readers.
My Writing Journey
The Playing Hard Series
Cassandra's novels are stand-alone contemporary romances with sports themes, collectively known as the "Playing Hard" series. Each book features a strong, relatable heroine and a charming hero, and while characters and stories stand independently, the books share a fun, flirty tone.
Reader Praise
Cavanaugh's writing has been praised for likable characters and heartfelt chemistry. Kirkus Reviews noted that "both of the main characters are driven and highly likable"in her stories, with relationships that "don't ever feel rushed, forced, or awkward".
