About me


I have been writing stories, poems, and lyrics since high school — often with a sketchpad in one hand and a latte in the other. Originally from the scenic coastlines of Rhode Island, I now call the Southwest home, where the sunsets are just as vivid as the plots I dream up.
A lifelong storyteller with a passion for romance and suspense…Briar blends heart-pounding twists with deeply emotional connections. Happily Never After is my debut novel — a story of love, loyalty, and what it means to fight your way back home.

Sometimes the best stories begin off the page.
Before Happily Never After, there were journal notes on beaches, candlelight drafts between shifts, and a dream that never stopped whispering.
Briar Wilder is the alter ego of a storyteller who believes in love that lingers, shadows that speak, and second chances that don’t always come easy.
From moonlit beaches to midnight writing sessions, Briar’s world is a blend of heart, mystery, and the quiet magic that happens when you finally listen to your own story.
