Elissa Strati writes Western historical romance with a strong focus on mail-order bride stories set during America’s frontier era. Since publishing her debut novel Love’s Prayer in 2016, she has built a massive catalog of over 400 books across more than 20 series. Her stories are set in small Western towns where women travel west to find husbands, often facing unexpected complications along the way.
Her books typically follow clean romance conventions, with faith-based themes woven into many of her stories. The First Street Church Romances was her first major series, and she has since expanded into dozens of mail-order bride variations, from the Spinster Mail-Order Brides to the Rescue Me series. She also writes the Old Timey Holiday Kitchen books, which mix romance with vintage recipes and holiday settings.
Strati is one of the most prolific authors working in the Western romance genre today. Her Prairie Roses Collection alone spans 50 books, and she regularly publishes new installments across several ongoing series. Readers who enjoy quick, sweet historical romances with Western settings will find plenty to choose from in her extensive back catalog.
