About Us

Claire Raye is actually the pen name for two best friends who met through their mutual love of reading. After bonding over books and writing (and wine and cheese), Claire and Raye decided to take the plunge and see if they could write a book together. And they’ve never looked back! In addition to their shared love of food, books and the Fast & Furious franchise, the writing duo that is Claire Raye like to write about strong sassy women who aren’t afraid to say what’s on their mind and the overprotective men who fall in love with them. 

Both halves of Claire Raye are married and both of their husbands have a cheeky smart arse side that gets plenty of airtime in their books. From their smart mouths to their witty one-liners, there’s plenty of material to use for all those alpha males Claire and Raye love to write about.

Claire and Raye are constantly chatting new ideas, new plots and of course, their next couple! Their romance books cover a range of genres including romantic comedy, new adult romance, contemporary romance and erotic romantic suspense. They love to hear from their readers and are always up for a chat about their books. Be sure to sign up for the Claire Raye newsletter too, there’s so much exciting stuff to share with you all!

Ready for your first One Freaked Up Halloween teas Ready for your first One Freaked Up Halloween teaser? This (clueless) brother’s best friend romance drops October 8th!

“What about you, any boyfriend wondering why you’re doing this with me?”
“No,” she huffs out, a cute little blush coloring her cheeks.
“Girlfriend?” I tease.
“No!” she says, punching me in the arm this time.
“Okay, okay,” I laugh. “So why no boyfriend then?”
Her blush deepens as she looks away from me. I watch as she takes a big gulp of whiskey, swallowing hard. “I don’t know,” she murmurs with a shrug.
“Oh come on, you can do better than that,” I say. “You’re cute and smart and funny and really love scary shit and stuff like this,” I say, waving my drink around. “Any guy would be lucky to call you his girlfriend.”
Heidi is staring at me again, her cheeks flushed and a look on her face that has something weird going on inside my chest.
Maybe I have had too much whiskey.
“Heidi?” I prompt when she just keeps staring at me.
“You really think that?” she asks, her words quiet, as though she’s almost afraid to ask me.
“Yeah, course I do,” I tell her. “You’re a catch, Swanson. Anyone can see that.”
She takes another sip of her drink as she mumbles, “I wish.”
