About Hannah
Career
Psychotherapist by day and writer by night, Hannah R. Goodman prefers tea over coffee, cats over dogs, and staying in over going out (especially if that means watching reality dating shows!). Her accomplishments include earning extra letters after her name—MFA, MEd, CGS, LMHC. Her most recent achievement is the publication of I Love That Girl, a New Adult romance novel, by The Wild Rose Press on January 1, 2025. One Goodreads reviewer says I Love That Girlis "simultaneously joyous, sexy, and uncertain" and is "the perfect book for any season of life."
In 2018, Black Rose Writing published her contemporary YA romance novel Till It Stops Beating, which was praised by Literary Titan for "tackling a difficult issue like anxiety and making a story that was funny and sweet without making light of the issue." Though released as a stand-alone book, Till It Stops Beating is the final book in The Maddie Chronicles series. The first three books in the series are currently available in an ebook or paperback boxed set entitled The Maddie Chronicles.
