KAREN GREY is a USA Today bestselling and award-winning author of vintage romantic comedies with smart heroines and hunky heroes. Drawing on a long career as a performer, her retro 80's and 90's romances are populated with characters working both on- and off-stage in theater, TV and film.
She's a lifelong omnivorous reader (including 20 years as an audiobook narrator). When not reading or writing, she's lounging at the beach or hiking in the mountains. Or dreaming about both with an IPA in hand and a dog or a cat nearby.

★★★★★ "Fresh, bright, original, laugh-out-loud funny yet serious and thought-provoking. And a marvelous trip down memory lane back to the 1980's, when we had big hair and before cell phones and social media ruled our lives." --Sally, Goodreads
Some scars go further than skin deep…
1988 doesn't end well for Jessica Abraham. In just one week she turns thirty, loses her day job, and loses the role of Ophelia to a younger actress. Rallying, she goes after a part at a theater outside of the city, but the director's plan to hide her beauty behind hair, makeup and wardrobe from Cosmo's "Don't'' column shakes her confidence to the core.
For the first time in her acting career, she won't be able to rely on her carefully managed physical charms. Only her craft will count.
On a snowy night early in January 1989, a woman calls into DJ Callihan Alonso's alt-rock radio show at the end of her commute. He asks her to call back the next night, and the next, just so he'll know she's home safe. There's something about her voice that has him wanting more, but the longer they talk, the closer she gets. Compromising each and every wall he's built around his heart.
If two lonely people fall in love over late-night phone calls, will meeting face-to-face make them, or break them?
In this heartfelt, slow burn retro romcom, it may be the end of a decade, but it's the beginning of a love story.
★★★★★ "Readers who love the 80s/90s nostalgic era and maturing "broken" characters will be captivated with the characters, the plot, and the unforgettable era of the 80s/90s - the good, the bad, and even the ugly side of things. Jess and Cal's story is an indelible ink that seeped into my subconsciousness. I felt every cheer in their triumphs and shed every tear in their disappointments." --Currant7_Recommends
★★★★★ "You Spin Me tugged on my heart in all the right ways. Jess and Cal were fantastic characters with such raw, deep, and challenging pasts. I loved the journey these two characters faced to reach their HEA. I was hooked from page one." --Jodi, Goodreads
★★★★★ "Like the first two books in the Boston Classics series, this book takes you on a journey. There's great music (that I'm now listening to), a host of interesting characters, a world that some of us lived in and storytelling that is absolutely wonderful." --Anna Reads Here
★★★★★ "I was reminded of the hours of late-night radio shows I would record (on a cassette), just so I could have recommendations for my crowd of new wave friends. But it's Grey's characters, Jess and Cal, that enamored themselves to me and made this one of my favorite books this year. It was hard to put this book down and so easy to jump back into." --Cyndi, Bookbub
★★★★★ "This book doesn't gloss over difficult subjects, but there's also a lot of humor, and the love story itself is great. It's a slow burn, sure, but there's a real and deep connection between Jess and Cal right at the beginning. Absolutely beautiful." --Claire, Goodreads
★★★★★ "I'm always happy to read Karen's books that transport me back to the 80s and 90s. I love her snippets of music, TV, current events of that time period sprinkled throughout the book for that hit of nostalgia." --Laurie Anne, Goodreads
