Stevens grew up on a ranch on Vancouver Island and still calls the island home. For most of her adult life she worked in sales, first as a rep for a giftware company and then as a Realtor. While holding an open house one afternoon, she had a terrifying idea that became the inspiration for Still Missing. Chevy eventually sold her house and left real estate so she could finish the book. Still Missing went on to become a New York Times bestseller and win the International Thriller Writers Award for Best First Novel. Chevy's books have been optioned for movies and are published in more than thirty countries.
Chevy enjoys writing thrillers that allow her to blend her interest in family dynamics with her love of the west coast lifestyle. When she's not working on her next book, she's camping and canoeing with her husband and daughter in the local mountains.

I knew people's expectations would be very high, but I just tried to write the story that was coming to me, to the best of my abilities. For Always Watching, I tried to let go of everything and told the story that was in my heart.
What is a 'Day in the life of Chevy Stevens' like?
Before I had a baby, I used to be up first thing, often by six, enjoying a cup of tea while I caught up on e-mails and Facebook, then I'd head out for a walk with my dog, Oona. After we both had something to eat, I was back at my computer. The mornings were just for writing, then I'd deal with business tasks, marketing, and errands in the afternoon.
