Author
Astrid Vance crafts sweeping space opera romance where love spans galaxies and empires rise or fall on matters of the heart. An astrophysicist who traded research for fiction when she realized equations couldn't capture the stories in her head, Astrid brings hard science credibility to tales of starship captains, rebel fighters, alien princes, and the cosmic forces that bring lovers together across impossible distances.
Her protagonists are often women of action—pilots, commanders, diplomats, or scientists—who find love amid interstellar war, first contact scenarios, or the politics of galactic federations. Astrid's romances are epic in scope but intimate in focus, asking what it means to choose love when the fate of worlds hangs in balance. Her love interests include enemy commanders, mysterious aliens whose cultures must be bridged, or crew members whose professional partnership ignites into passion during long voyages between stars.
Known for her imaginative worldbuilding, diverse alien cultures, and romances that feel as vast as the universe itself, Astrid creates science fiction romance for readers who want their love stories with a side of warp drives and plasma rifles. She writes from an observatory in New Mexico, still looking up at the stars and imagining who might be looking back.
