Riva currently resides in North Carolina with her two children, two dogs, and husband. As a military family, they move often. She met her husband in 2016 while both were serving in the 173rd in Italy. 

​

Riva is a sucker for anything dark and twisty, especially a good ghost story. Her favorite things to do are cuddling up on the couch during a thunderstorm and reading about morally gray characters with a glass of wine in hand.

 

Riva currently writes dark romances, with the exception of one thriller/suspense. Her family comes first above all things and is her main supporter.
