Carmen McIntyre writes stories about love, betrayal, survival, and the choices that change everything. A Chicago native now living in Charlotte, she turned years of private writing into her debut novel Choices, followed by Choices II, a sequel readers call “emotional” and “unputdownable.” Her newest work, Electa, dives deeper into mystery and suspense, exploring resilience and identity against impossible odds.

Creativity runs through everything Carmen does—whether she’s building unforgettable characters, designing handmade jewelry, or painting glass. A proud mother and grandmother, she brings the same heart, grit, and honesty to her fiction as she does to her life.

When she’s not writing or creating, you can usually find her plotting her next story, reminding women everywhere that they are the main character.
