About the authors
I’m a writer, musician, and cat lover. I also have an alternative music obsession. Seriously, it's a real problem.
I write what needs to come out, whether it’s pain, tears, or laughter. I write people and relationships, about the beauty and horror of what we do to ourselves and each other. I write Love. Vengeance. Compassion. Cruelty. Trust. Betrayal. Forgiveness. Darkness, and the incredible way humans destroy and heal each other.
I like to eradicate barriers, refusing to be confined by the laws of physics or limitations of reality. I will befriend a vast population of possibilities and introduce them in ways that might surprise you.
Aly is a writer, musician, and terrible cook. She loves cats, hates selfies, holds a blackbelt in Kyokushin karate, and watches every documentary she can find. Her books (and music) stretch genres and feature emotional, angsty themes with gripping storylines that bring all the feels. The only things she enjoys more than shredding hearts is stitching them back together and creating vivid, complex characters you can’t let go.
Her novels have been nominated for an RT Reviewer’s Choice award, received a number of Amazon category bestseller rankings, and have been praised by some of the leading authors in the romance industry. The care and compassion with which she handles difficult subjects like mental illness and suicide has also been recognized by mental health advocates and actively promoted by multiple survivors and organizations.
No matter the genre or trope, Aly’s goal is always the same: to write with earnest passion from her soul to yours.
Aly is represented by SBR Media. For inquiries regarding foreign rights, audio, and other media outlets, please contact Katie Monson at SBR Media.

- Reviewed in the United States on January 23, 2020Wow, wow, wow.
This book was amazing.
I’ll be honest, it took me a good two or three chapters to grasp what was happening. Once I did, there was no stopping me. I did not want to put this book down. If you feel that same way, please keep going. I’m so glad I did. Totally worth it.
I was captivated by Alyson’s words, pulled into this story. I couldn’t get enough. I wanted more. I needed answers. Her writing is incredible, her storytelling poetic.
Such a tortured soul, Milo learns and grows so much while stuck in the house on Maple Avenue.
It’s more than a ghost story.
It’s way more than a love story.
It’s an emotional journey.
It’s about forgiveness, letting go of the past, redemption, and selflessness.
Rachel and Milo...they were meant to find each other.
“She may have been sent to love me back to the light. But I was sent to love her into death.”
See? Poetic. Words that make you stop and think. Words that fill you with hope and love and anticipation and all the feels.
Their bonding, their music, their love...so magical and touching and beautiful.
This story made me smile, made me cry, made me believe.
If you love paranormal romances with ghosts, read this book.
If you struggle a bit with the first few chapters, please keep going.
This hauntingly beautiful tale is so worth the read.
p.s. The bonus scene was so cute and perfect!
- Reviewed in the United States on June 17, 2019For me this story has been so many things; enlightening, contentious, disturbing and restorative.
I was that young woman that watched Ghost with Demi Moore and Patrick Swayze over, and over and over again. That love story pressed all my buttons!
Ghost's spiritual, enduring and eternal love struck such a chord with me that I just knew this story from Alyson Santos was going to be one to strike again that deep connection with my spiritual romantic sensibilities.
And it did, not just by way of the storyline but through Santos's ability to craft those sentiments with perfection. This author truly has a gift at conveying the heart's truths.
That said, the physical connection element of this story's portrayal I couldn't quite accept.
Though I am very open to paranormal concepts, this time I couldn't quite reach that acceptance.
But that does not take away from this books value.
It is worth the read, with an open mind and heart and a handing box of tissues!
- Reviewed in the United States on April 27, 2019This may be the most difficult review I have written to date. If you know me, you know there's never a shortage of words, and this is far from the first time I have nothing but glowing, fangirl to the extreme, praise for Ms. Santos. So what's the problem? While I want to gush effusively about this book, the rational part of me knows that the ONLY way to experience this book is to go in blind. With wine and tissues, perhaps...but blind. And a couple of extra boxes of tissue.
Truly original. Completely intriguing. Irresistibly mesmerizing. Ethereally beautiful. Undeniably haunting. Impossible to put down.
Read. It. Now.
Then get in touch because I so need someone to process this one with!
- Reviewed in the United States on May 10, 2019This is the first book I’ve read by Alyson Santos. In my opinion it started out slow, but I kept reading. I’m glad I did because I was pulled into Milo’s story. I was very pleasantly surprised with the ending.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 25, 2019Haunted Melody is a fantastic story, the genre of ghost-paranormal reinvented. Breathtaking and gorgeous, it simply brings the reader to her knees.
I didn't expect the point of view of this read. I didn't expect the turn the story took, the circumstances, or the saving grace of the hero.
None of what happened here has been done before.
Hot, sweet, and heart-wrenching, Haunted Melody gives the tear ducts a workout. It makes the reader fan herself, want to be there with the protagonist—at the same time as she's happy she's not.
I shut this beautiful, completely different novel with a shudder in my chest and a wobbly smile on my face. I recommend it to any romance reader who appreciate great writing and genres reinvented.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 3, 2019I think I still might need to stop to sob a bit more while writing my review. Alyson Santos has the magic down. She has been writing these stories where I am dragged through the trenches and when I think we can finally come up for air she takes me down for that final kill. By kill I mean where people come into the room and don't understand why I am sobbing my eyes out. This was a tragic story, it was a magical story, it was a story of love, and at the end it brought me to a place where I need moments to myself to process what I have just read. Absolutely wonderful book Alyson! denise bailey
- Reviewed in the United States on March 19, 2023This was definitely a very different kind of story! Milo's journey can be a bit confusing, but HE is confused, so that confusion makes sense. 🤣 Possibly unlike that sentence...
Anyway, his story is tough, but beautiful. Redemption, healing, love...
And that's all you need to know to dive in!
😍😍😍
- Reviewed in the United States on April 30, 2019I finished Haunted Melody 2 days ago and I'm still not sure how to review it. There's not another book to compare it to and I definitely don't want any spoilers in here. This story was not a quick read for me and that was intentional. I found I needed to give myself time to absorb and process what I was reading. Milo and Rachel's story is unique, it's at times heartbreaking, it's haunting, and it's beautiful. Any Alyson Santos book stays with me and Haunted Melody is no different. It probably will stay a bit longer than the others, and that's okay. I don't really want to let it go.

4.0 out of 5 stars Paranormal/after life love story?
The first part of the story had me confused as hell...I knew the main character was a ghost, but the visions or the point of them plus the random people around him left me wondering where this story was going. Then around the halfway point, the story clarified and became a journey to salvation wrapped in a beautiful love story. At one point I started tearing up a little bit, it’s so good.

5.0 out of 5 stars Haunting in the best way
I read this book in one sitting; I had to know what happened. To start with, I kept thinking that I must be missing something, that the book couldn’t be saying what it appeared to be saying.
I became totally invested in the characters, and it was such an emotional read. The ending is just beautiful.
I highly recommend this very unusual story.
