Bob Lacey is the author of the Riding Paradise thriller series, action-packed novels inspired by years of travel through Mexico with his wife, Joyce.

Over many winters, they explored thousands of miles of Mexico’s highways, coastlines, villages, and mountain roads. No route left a deeper impression than the legendary Pacific Coast Highway—Route 200—a breathtaking road winding through beaches, cliffs, jungle, and remote towns.

Those journeys became the foundation for Riding Paradise, and later expanded into Jaguar Is Loose and Operation Jaguar, where danger, loyalty, romance, and cartel conflict collide against the backdrop of modern Mexico.

Blending real-world atmosphere with high-stakes suspense, Bob Lacey writes stories for readers who crave adventure, tension, and unforgettable roads.

After a 35-year career in the oil and gas industry, Bob Lacey traded the office for the open highway. Alongside his wife, Joyce, he now spends his days traveling, golfing, and chasing the freedom of the open road.
