Since first publishing in January 1996, Lori Foster has become a Waldenbooks, Borders, USA Today, Publisher's Weekly and New York Times bestselling author. Lori has published through a variety of houses, including Kensington, St. Martin's, Harlequin, Silhouette and Samhain. She is currently with Berkley/Jove.
Lori believes it's important to give back to the community as much as possible, and for that reason she ran special contests in conjunction with a publisher, facilitating many first sales for new authors. She routinely organizes events among authors and readers to gather donations for various organizations.
Along with her good friend, Dianne Castell, Lori hosts a very special annual "Reader & Author" event in West Chester, Ohio. Proceeds from the event have benefited many worthy causes, including the Hamilton County YWCA Battered Women's Shelter, the Animal Adoption Foundation, The Conductive Learning Center for children with spina bifida and cerebral palsy, and The One Way Farm, Children's Home.
In 2007, Lori put together The Write Ingredients a cookbook of recipes donated by popular authors. Proceeds from the cookbook go toward Lori's ongoing "Troop project" of collecting and mailing fun, and sometimes necessary, items to our troops.
In 2008, Lori coordinated eleven other authors of her choosing, and through Berkley, arranged for the publication of The Power of Love, a special anthology of novellas about empowering women. All author and agent proceeds from the anthology go to the Hamilton Co YWCA Battered women's shelter.
In 2009, Tails of Love, a new anthology with Lori and a new set of authors, will be published with proceeds to benefit The Animal Adoption Foundation.

A reader wrote a review on Causing Havoc (SBC Fighters, Book 1)
Was okay. Good steamy sex. Had potential to have good action, but, never really materialized.Guess I shouldn't have been reading Stephen King before and after it. :(
When I need an escape from reality, I reach for Foster. She delivers the goods!
I am a big fan of both Lori and the L.L. Foster Servant series. Can't wait for the next one!
I'm brand new here - thanks to Gautham for inviting me onboard. I'll get the hang of things little by little, and do more as I figure out the site. Thanks!
