Before achieving success as an author, Croft worked a variety of jobs, including as an internet marketing consultant, delivery driver, and professional actor.

In 2016, two of Croft's books hit the USA Today bestseller list only weeks apart, making them two of the most-purchased books in the United States over the summer.
In 2017, Croft was placed as the most widely read author in the world by Amazon’s overall Author Rankings, with J.K. Rowling in second place.
