About the Author

I've always enjoyed immersing myself into new and unique worlds. As a child, I had notebooks full of maps (horribly drawn by the way), characters, histories, and ideas of far away worlds. As I've grown older, romance has become a favorite genre of mine. I wanted to create a world full of intrigue and focus on developing the characters and their relationships.Currently, I spend my days with my dog and reading an obsessive amount of books. I look forward to all the other stories rattling around my brain.
