Instead of trying to find your perfect match in a dating app, we bring you the “Author-Reader Match” where we introduce you to authors you may fall in love with. It’s our great pleasure to present Tasha Coryell!
Writes:
I write fun thrillers for readers looking for something to escape into. In my second novel, MATCHMAKING FOR PSYCHOPATHS, the protagonist deals with her engagement breaking up by getting a little too involved with her psychopathic clients. When body parts start showing up at her door, she needs to figure out whether it’s someone from her present or her past that’s trying to take her down. I wanted to capture the thrill of watching reality television dating shows with the suspense of my favorite thrillers.
About:
Minnesotan seeking readers who love a fun thriller. I enjoy reading but also watch a copious amount of television while cross stitching. I’m currently in the midst of viewing Real Housewives of Beverly Hills and can spend hours dissecting Summer House and Southern Charm. I spent 11 years in Tuscaloosa, Alabama and can roll tide with the best of them. When I’m not writing, reading, or watching TV, you can find me on a long run or trying to entertain my toddler.
What I’m looking for in my ideal reader match:
- Smart, but not too stuck up for reality television
- Simultaneously crave adventure and a stable life
- Spends too much time scrolling social media
- Wants all the drama of dating shows in written form
- Loves a complex protagonist
What to expect if we’re compatible:
- Books with kissing
- Books with murder
- Books with kissing and murder
- Characters that are desirable even though you know they’re bad
- Jokes in the darkest of places
MATCHMAKING FOR PSYCHOPATHS by Tasha Coryell

Love is a dangerous game when your clients are killers…from the bestselling author behind Love Letters to a Serial Killer.
When Lexie’s fiancé runs off with her so-called best friend on her birthday, her carefully crafted fairy-tale life shatters. Having survived horrors in her past, she was determined to finally get her happily-ever-after—and she’s not giving up yet.
To distract herself, Lexie throws herself into her unusual job: matchmaking psychopaths (a specialty her clients are blissfully unaware of). But the loneliness is crushing. So when a gorgeous, overprotective new client named Aidan insists they’re soulmates, and another intriguing client, Rebecca, seems perfect to fill the best-friend-shaped hole in her life, Lexie can’t help but find the attention comforting—despite her own professional boundaries.
Then a human heart appears on Lexie’s doorstep. As more threatening packages arrive and her fiancé mysteriously disappears, she must confront a terrifying question: did she inadvertently match herself with a killer? Between Aidan’s claims that her fiancé will never return, Rebecca’s growing presence in her life, and her own dark past resurfacing, Lexie’s matchmaker instincts are being tested like never before.
Because someone is determined to ensure her story ends with a funeral.
