Clayton Hartley Matthews (24 October 1918 – 25 March 2004) was an American writer of mystery, erotic and romance novels, with more than 35 books and many short stories as Clayton Matthews. He often collaborated with his wife, writer Patricia Matthews (Patty Brisco); and they were called "the hottest couple in paperbacks.".

Life

Clayton Hartley Matthews was born on 24 October 1918. He started writing short stories in the late 1950s. He began contributing to the Mike Shayne Mystery Magazine and then turned to writing paperback novels, mostly in the erotic genre, in the early 1960s.

In a California's local writers' group, he met writer Patty Brisco. After his divorce, they married on 3 November 1972, and lived near San Diego. In the late 1970s, his agent Jay Garon, suggested to him and his wife to write romance novels. In the 1980s and 1990s Matthews and his wife collaborated on romance and mystery novels. Matthews died on 25 March 2004.[1]
