Hi, I’m Elsie

Author of Sassy
Sexy Romance

Thanks for dropping by. If you're a fan of steamy small town romance with dirty-talking alpha heroes and strong heroines who clap back, you're in the right place!


Each of my books is a little bit different, but at their core they're all books that I myself would enjoy reading. I live for the tension, but I need that emotional connection–to see their relationship build up . . . and then tumble down when they finally give in. 


Real characters with real problems, people who cuss and who make mistakes sometimes. Scenes that make you blush. But stories that always, always end happily ever after.

Love Notes

  • “Combining rodeo and reality show tropes, the diverting first installment of the Emerald Lake series from bestseller Silver (Wild Card) proves wonderfully entertaining… Silver’s fans will be well pleased.”

    Publishers Weekly

  • “A fun and charming series starter, with close ties to Silver’s ‘Chestnut Springs’ series, this is perfect for dating-show aficionados looking for a chemistry-filled twist.”

    Library Journal

  • "Sweet, funny, and spicy, Wild Love is wildly intoxicating. I was wrapped up after just the first chapter and dreamed of this world long after I left the pages. Zachary Webber and Vanessa Edwin bring life to the banter and tension in their fantastic performances of Ford and Rosie. I fell just as deeply in love with our main characters as I did Ford's daughter, best friend, and the whole single dad bowling crew. Silver's writing shines in this first installment of what is sure to be a magnificent and unputdownable series!"

  • “Wild Love is Elsie Silver at her absolute best. The perfect blend of humor, heat, and heart, with richly unique characters that pull you in from the very first page. This story will have you cackling one moment and tearing up the next. Wild Love is an absolute must-read for romance fans and one of my favorite reads of 2024."

    Catherine Cowles, New York Times Bestselling Author

  • "Heartwarming, sensual, and thoroughly addicting."

    Ana Huang, New York Times bestselling author

  • "Wild Card is funny, fresh, and full of heart—I didn’t want to put it down! Gwen and Bash have electric chemistry from moment one, and it crackles through every bingeable page. Elsie Silver has a gift for transporting readers into vividly rendered, deeply human characters who grapple with life and love in the most relatable ways—and she does not miss."

    Brynne Weaver, New York Times bestselling author

  • "I picked up this book about a pro wrestler and a chef and found an exploration of grief, vulnerability, and how love has the power to fortify us, all while never skimping on the delicious tension and heart I've come to expect from Elsie's books. A master at crafting fully realized, beautifully human characters, and giving them a rich story full of growth, heat, and humor, Elsie Silver is in a league entirely of her own."

    Tarah DeWitt,  USA Today bestselling Author

  • "Elsie Silver’s writing is a true revelation! Heartless is everything I’ve wanted in a steamy small town romance! I knew from Cade and Willa’s first meeting (spoiler: it involves underwear) that I’d be obsessed with these two, and every line Elsie Silver wrote made me root for them even more! Truly the single dad/nanny romance of my wildest dreams-Elsie Silver has a new superfan in me!"

    Ali Hazelwood, New York Times bestselling author

  • “This might be my favorite Rose Hill book yet! Wild Card was such a joy to read, and Elsie’s description of it feeling like fate for our two main characters couldn’t be more accurate!”
