Hello and thank you for visiting!
I’m Carmine Valentine and welcome to my website! I love storytelling! I write romance with a mystery woven in. My stories are set in the Pacific Northwest, a place where I was born and raised and continue to call home. My debut novel, All Fired Up, is the recipient of the Literary Titan Gold Book Award and I am so grateful for that recognition.
