Contemporary Romance Author
Avery Olivia Gray
Avery O. Gray writes contemporary romance with literary sensibility — stories about competent people in complicated situations building something ordinary and extraordinary at the same time.
Stars and Bridges is her debut novel.
It began as a short story inspired by a song and became a book about quiet grief, found family, and the domestic love that grows not from grand gestures, but from small ones repeated reliably over time.
She lives in Oklahoma with her partner, Garrett; her son, Gideon; and her two cats, Chester and Dale. She believes in French press coffee, star-shaped pancakes as a love language, and the structural importance of spite plants.
Or she’s just an over-caffeinated raccoon in a cardigan. Neither can be confirmed.
