Background

Author Context: Lucy Score

Lucy Score is a highly successful #1 New York Times bestselling author whose witty writing style and sassy female protagonists have garnered considerable attention from appreciative readers. Before finding success as an author, Score earned a degree in journalism and wrote for a local newspaper, as well as gaining expertise in jobs such as proofreading and marketing. When faced with unexpected unemployment, Score decided to write a romance novella. The 35,000-word endeavor took about a year and only sold 35 copies. Her failure eventually provided an opportunity to turn her dreams into reality when she was approached by a start-up publisher of indie authors. The resulting novel, Undercover Love, was published in 2015, and by applying her knowledge of marketing and journalism, Score gained a loyal readership as she worked on a second novel. Pretend You’re Mine (2015) became a #1 Amazon Kindle bestseller within days of its release, and its success marked Score’s transition into full-time writing. She went on to write and self-publish three more novels in 2016. By 2020, her new release titled By the Thread became another #1 Amazon Kindle bestseller.

In 2022, Score negotiated a traditional publishing deal with Bloom Books and Holder & Stoughton, which placed Things We Never Got Over (2022) on the New York Times bestseller list.
