Meet Dawn Brazil:

I read words. I write words. I love words. Words have so much power, I understood this at an early age so story-telling has always been a part of my life. After college, I tried my hand at a few different careers - paralegal, customer service, sales. Yeah, I shouldn't have. Now, I'm following my passion and doing what I love. I write Young Adult urban fantasy, science fiction, and romance novels. I live in Texas with my husband and three kids and my endless imagination.

Meet Sam Destiny:

Just a free-lance lover of the written word and fictional worlds... Everyone has that one perfect book boyfriend... I wanted my own, so... Here we are!

I've been writing since I figured guys in real life don't do what I want them to do, and there is nothing better than to write the stuff you like... Until I realized that THOSE boys don't do what you want them to do, either... *sighs*

Meet BA Dillon:

BA Dillon is a devoted wife and mother of two grown children, and a dedicated middle school teacher. Writing has always been an outlet for Dillon as she believes words are both powerful and magical. Tethered Through Time is Dillon’s debut novel. A Vision in Time followed in May 2015, and Shattered by Time is expected in 2016. It's About Time, a novella, will be released in early September. Dillon also writes a monthly column, “Turn the Page,” for the magazine 85 South, Out and About in the Atlanta area. As an avid, passionate reader Dillon gets deeply invested in books, especially if they are full of great dialogue between believable characters. She loves music, words, books, and martinis!

Meet Jessica Florence:

What can I say. I love reading

Total addiction.

I love all Romance Novels.

I am a sucker for happy endings and Alpha boys

I love books that make me happy and wanna laugh.

Meet Terra Kelly:

A romance nerd at heart, I tend to find inspiration in my dreams, or when walking my dog. My love for romance goes all the way back to when I was 15, and laying on my best friend’s bed reading romance books. It only took me 25 years to start putting all my stories on paper….well actually a computer. I was born and raised in Michigan, now live in the South in North Carolina. So my accent sounds like a Yankee with a slight Southern drawl. When I am not writing you will find me reading, or baking.

My real life romance started when I was just 19. Now over 20 years later, my husband is not only my lover but my best friend. We only raise furry kids, we have one dog and two cats. Our animals are all rescues.

I am a foodie, who loves creating recipes. Over four years ago I started a food blog at CafeTerraBlog. My love for food is why each of my books will always share new recipes made by the characters.

I love connecting with my followers. You can find me on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Pinterest. I will keep you up to date on what I'm writing, book release dates, and so much more.

Meet LadyJ:

I grew up in Upstate NY, but my heart belongs in Arizona. If given the chance, I'd gladly trade in frost burn, for sun burn! I speak in movie quotes ALL the time. Seriously, it might be considered a sickness by now ;) I absolutely love the sound of others laughing. So I'll try to get you to do just that!

I love coffee, peanut butter cups, and OF COURSE reading!

I grew up causing all kinds of trouble with my twin sister/partner in crime.

My wild over-exaggerated story telling grew, along with my love for reading. With the support of my hubby and the encouragement of my womb mate, I put pen to paper, and let my imagination take over.

I am an author currently working on the release of my debut novel. Forever Marked is a romantic suspense, and the first book in a series. I enjoy reading all genres. Paranormal, thriller, romantic suspense, dystopian.... You name it!

Meet R.J. Loom:

R.J. Loom was born and raised along the shores of Lake Erie in Ohio, where she still resides with her husband, two teenage children and two spoiled dogs. She loves books, music, travel and anyone with a great sense of humor. When she’s not writing, she can be found with her nose in a book, looking for more books to add to her “to-be-read” pile or spending time with her family.

Meet Franny Marie:

I live in Modesto, California(Too much hot weather) with my parents and Twin brother with Cerebral Palsy. I also have 2 cockers, buddy who is 3 and Ladie who is 1, they are my life.

When I'm not writing books, I spend the majority of my time being a caregiver to my parents and Brother, I also squeeze in some time to play with my dogs and read.

I love reading Romance, Mysteries and Thrillers. You can also find me, Listening to The Weeknd almost 24/7 his music inspires all of my stories, Just ask my chicken soup ladies ;)

I'm currently working on Book 2 and 3 of the Initiation Trilogy which is a mystery thriller and suspense novella's also Still working on my very first Novel I started back in August 2013, Intensive it in its 5th rewrite, I hope to have that out to you all sometime in 2017.

Lastly, I'm dyslexic, sometimes it shows up in my writing, but thank god for beta readers and editors.

Meet Lisa Messier:

I'm a 30 year old SAHM to three girls and am married to the most amazing man. I grew up in a small farming community in northern Alberta before moving to the "big city" at 20.

I write for the same reason I breathe, because it is necessary for my survival. I've been writing since childhood and actively keeping what I write since I was twelve. I love looking back and seeing who I was then reflected in the words I wrote. You can still see who I am now in the words I write today.

Meet Shelby Reeves:

Wife. Mother. Food Support Manager at Walmart. Obsessions: Alabama Football and Harry Potter. Loves to spend time with family and friends. Born a Yankee, raised in Sweet Home Alabama.
