Mariana Zapata is an American author who writes romance novels. A native of Houston, Texas, Zapata is grateful for her childhood. She grew up in a quiet neighborhood surrounded by ordinary families.

She could play outside with other kids without her parents worrying about their safety. The author spent a lot of time rollerblading and riding her bike around the block. Her parents and siblings are incredible human beings.

In her interviews, Mariana Zapata has expressed her deep affection for her family, not just as relatives, but as individuals. They are all intricately involved in each other’s lives, often exchanging random messages, a testament to their closeness.

She’s also grateful for her little brother, who pushed her to give publishing a shot by reading everything she wrote when they were young and complimenting her on the quality of her writing and storytelling capabilities.

Zapata took an interest in writing at an early age. In fact, she began experimenting with love stories as soon as she mastered spelling. She would sneak romance novels out of her aunt’s bookshelves at a time when she was too young to understand and appreciate the sexual content they contained.

Her mother never found out because the stories she wrote were tame. Avid Mariana Zapata fans continue to scour the internet in search of the website that published the author’s fanfiction during her teens.

She was writing boy band fanfiction at the time, but in her early twenties, she switched to Twilight and Sookie Stackhouse stories. She blames her partner for finally pushing her to pen and publish original stories.

She gravitates towards the romance genre because love stories are hopeful. They encourage, uplift, and inspire, reminding people of the most important aspects of life. She wants readers to feel happier after finishing her novels.

She hopes to fill them with the same joy she experiences when she reads her favorite romance books.

Her loyal followers have noticed the emphasis she places on diversity. Zapata remembers being the only Mexica-American child in her advanced classes. Some kids avoided her because she was different.

As an adult, she struggles to fit in because she isn’t American or Mexican enough for the Americans and Mexicans she meets. Her books appeal to readers with similar struggles because they feature protagonists who are fighting to find a middle ground between the cultures that define them.

Additionally, she tries to explore the misconceptions that surround individuals with controversial backgrounds. For instance, the novel ‘Lingus’ features a pornstar called Tristan. In writing the book, Zapata wanted to show readers that Tristan was a normal person despite the questions surrounding his profession.

Best Mariana Zapata Books

The author writes slow-burn novels. She prioritizes the relationship over the sex because stories in which the characters have sex too soon after meeting repel her. Zapata’s best books include:

The Wall of Winnipeg And Me: Aiden was a perfect top-defensive player. Football was all that mattered to him, which is why he took his personal assistant for granted. Vannesa did everything for him, from curating his meals to posting content on his social media pages.

But he wouldn’t even say hello to her. Unbeknownst to Aiden, Vanessa had dreams of pursuing web design. After saving enough money, she finally quit, a development that shocked Aiden.

The last thing Vanessa expected was for her former boss to show up at her door. Aiden was in trouble. He could only avoid deportation by renewing his contract. But Aiden had no intention of doing so, which left him one option.

He needed a wife, and Vanessa was a fitting match, so he approached her and suggested an arrangement, unaware of the emotions that would ignite between them later.

From Lukove With Love: Jasmine had every reason to feel like a failure. Her figure skating career was not going the way she hoped. The judges hated her because she had a terrible attitude, which was the same reason why she couldn’t find a partner to skate with her.

The fact that she lived with her parents made things worse because the guilt of putting her mother in so much debt was crushing Jasmine.

She was willing to do anything to change her fortunes, or so she claimed. Her organization tested that assertion when they asked her to skate with her arch-enemy.
