Beyond Mr. Darcy: A panel discussion with romance authors Damon Suede, Farrah Rochon, and Sarina Bowen

September 14, 2017 | 6:00 pm - 7:30 pm

The Boston Public Library is pleased to host Beyond Mr. Darcy: New Markets in Romance.

Damon Suede grew up out-n-proud in conservative America. Though new to romance fiction, Suede has been writing for print, stage, and screen for two decades. He’s won some awards, but counts his blessings more often: his amazing friends, his beautiful husband, and his loyal fans.

USA Today bestselling author Farrah Rochon hails from a small town just west of New Orleans. She has garnered much acclaim for her Crescent City-set Holmes Brothers series and her Moments in Maplesville small town series. Rochon is a two-time finalist for the prestigious RITA Award from the Romance Writers of America and has been nominated for an RT Book Reviews Reviewers’ Choice Best Book Award. In 2015, she received the Emma Award for Author of the Year.

Sarina Bowen is a USA Today bestselling and RITA Award-winning author of contemporary romance and new adult fiction. She holds a BA in economics from Yale University.
