Meet Ashley Hollow

Ashley Hollow lives in a small Appalachian mountain holler, nestled among misty ridges and deep green forest.

When she isn’t tending her garden or caring for her chickens, she’s weaving cozy mystery novels filled with charm, heart, and a touch of suspense.

The woods that envelop her home provide endless inspiration for the secrets, clues, and close‑knit communities that shape her stories.

Inspiration

Ashley's inspiration comes from her vivid imagination, small-town living, and once in a while, her husband (he loves cozy mysteries) will have a great idea for a story and she runs with it!

The characters had that feel that I wanted and was engaged with what was happening with them. Ashley Hollow has a strong writing style and had that element that I wanted. I hope there is more in this series and from Ashley Hollow .
