Hey y’all, I’m Greer!
Bestselling author (←this feels weird to say, but I’ve been told it’s good to talk about it lol), professional heartbreaker (only on the page, I swear), and the mad mind behind the Tatterverse.
I write emotionally charged, messy, dark-gray romances where villains and antiheroes win, heroines rise from the ashes, and the road to happily-ever-after isn’t paved with good intentions, but obsession, scars, and just the right amount of steam.
From the beginning, though, my goal first and foremost has always been to create a safe space for readers to feel too much. Here’s to falling in love with plots, bad boys, and maybe even ourselves along the way!
Why I love what I do…
If you’ve read Phantom, my Phantom of the Opera retelling, you probably know by now that I have Bipolar Disorder Type I, and my brain “broke” in 2015. After two severe manic episodes in less than a year, I lost my ability to read. I thought the life I’d worked so hard for was over.
However, for some reason, I could write. I couldn’t read what I wrote (brains are weird), until, eventually, over the course of a book (that will never see the light of day), I regained my reading comprehension. I guess you could say writing saved my life as I knew it.
Ever since, I wanted to give readers a safe place to feel too much, and I see my books as a love letter to the feelers. The ones who feel like they can’t cry out loud, or they’ve been told they’re too *much*, or they’ve never felt like they quite fit in their own skin. In my books, there’s love, spice, and everything not so nice, but my hope is that they make you feel better at the end, feel more like you, and they give you the power to love who you are too.
If any of that speaks to you, my books are for you, dear reader…

PEER INTO THE MADNESS
A Few Fun Facts (and Mild Red Flags)
Reality TV Binger
When I’m not deep in the chaotic Tatterverse, you’ll find me binging reality shows like it’s my job. I pretend I’m watching the drama from my seat at a patio café, and I eat that sh** up like chocolate chip muffins and iced matcha lattes.
I’m Messy
I’m a messy eater and no shirt in my house is safe, especially if it’s new. If you see me at signings with a stain on my cute clothes that I literally bought the day before, please give me grace. I’m trying.
IRL Book Hubs & Folklore
I love folklore, especially from the Southern Appalachian Mountains, my home. My IRL book husband and partner in crime (Alex, my King of Chaos) and I live in a century-old home nestled in a town at the foothills of these old, storied mountains.

WHAT READERS ARE SAYING
★★★★★
"This book was so f’ing good. This book has everything I look for when I'm looking for a dark romance. It has drama, amazing plot, characters that are dark and disturbed while still being understandable, aaaaaand spice. I enjoyed reading this so much, it was so easy to pick this up and escape into the story and world built. If you enjoyed Phantom by Greer, I highly recommend continuing the series for more!"
ROUGE | Amazon Review
"Greer Rivers has hit a home run in her second in the Conviction Series, Fighting Conviction!! I finished Fighting Conviction in one day because I was afraid of what might happen if I closed my kindle! It was spine tingling, occasionally downright nerve-racking, and definitely SPICY AF!! Devil and his Angel are made for each other, and Greer Rivers writes these scenes with a beautifully eloquent hand! 5 SPICY stars for this non-stop rollercoaster ride!!"
FIGHTING CONVICTION | Amazon Review
"A Phantom retelling? Absolutely phenomenal! The concept grabbed my attention and held it throughout. So many elements of the true story are imbued in this retelling, enhancing the love story of Scarlett and Sol. You can hear the music in the air and feel the tension building toward the final curtain. I felt the passion, confusion, danger, heartbreak, and love on every page. The Phantom was brought to life on paper, and I have seen the stage play. The chills and anticipation were just as great. Bravo, Ms. Rivers!!"
