Love Unapologetically
A ‘90s kid turned indie romance author, weaving nostalgia, heartache, and small-town magic into stories that feel like a mixtape of first love, lost time, and the ones who got away.

Sara (S.M.R.) Burton started writing at a young age. Crafting stories in a wide-ruled yellow notebook about her life, and the lives of her friends. It makes sense that she now writes contemporary romance novels with a dash of literary fiction that take a deep look into the dynamic of human connection.
She’s from small-town USA, born in Indiana, and growing up in Michigan, she’s spent the majority of her life in the Midwest. She has found her way back to Indiana where she lives with her husband and two children.
When she isn’t writing, she is editing…just kidding, well, not really. Sara is that nerdy weird girl with a crass sense of humor who will always remain true to her authentic self. She has spent time crafting a space for writers, in her writing club “Wrevenge of the Nerds” on Discord, as well as on her social media platforms. She’s a mental health warrior who has adopted the mission of helping others to feel seen. And while any of the above is going on, there will always be music playing in the background, as she is an avid music lover. Sara also loves Astrology, a good ghost story, tarot, and collecting crystals.

I’m a writer, new author, poet, and firm believer in living authentically. I approach life with an unwavering commitment of staying true to myself, and weaving tales that reflect the messy beauty of being human.
My writing journey is like a patchwork quilt, filled with vibrant characters and stories that dive into the deep waters of love, romance, and the everyday struggles of mental health. With my debut novel Cherry Trail: A Story From Havenburg and Making Shadows With Their Footprints, I aim to paint an honest picture of these important topics, offering readers a blend of empathy and reality.
Beyond writing, I’m all about building connections and creating a space where people can come together, share experiences, and find comfort in knowing they’re not alone.
