About the Author Living on the east coast, I love to travel to Maine. Just far enough away to enjoy time with my wonderful family without the weight of work or competing schedules, but close enough that most of the short time to escape is not taken by travel. The beautiful scenery and abundance of woods and rocky beaches offers peace and tranquility to me and my family. I am the mother of three wonderful children and work in a law firm. Writing is something I ever thought I could do, my vast work experience is more in accounting and ...

About the Author Nhys Glover is an Aussie writer who now lives and works in the beautiful Yorkshire Dales of England where she draws on Bronte country to inspire her little bit hot romantic adventure stories. Her life has been as interesting and adventurous as her novels (lived on a sheep station in the outback, worked in a male medium security prison, travelled the world presenting her spiritual board game Psyche’s Key etc) but now she prefers a life not unlike the world of New Atlantis where she does her own version of time travelling using her imagination and research ...

About the Author Lori Cook is a pen name, although you probably guessed that! I believe that erotica is a healthy, inspiring and stimulating form of fiction. Unfortunately not everybody agrees. I work for public institutions, and because of this I’ve decided not to use my real name here. With the CARDINAL series I’ve taken my first steps into the world of erotic writing. They definitely won’t be my last. I’ve written all sorts of stuff over the years, and I’ve had a number of things published. But this has been the most fun I’ve ever had with a pen! ...

About the Author Annette Gisby grew up in a small town in Northern Ireland, moving to London when she was seventeen. Being a very small town there were no bookshops and a small library. When she’d devoured every book she could get her hands on in the library, she started writing her own stories so she would always have something to read later. When not writing she enjoys reading, cinema, theatre, walks along deserted beaches or wandering around ruined castles (great places for inspiration!) New Zealand is her favourite place and she hopes to travel back there one day. She’s ...

About the Author I have spent most of my career as a magazine journalist, but I think that this job simply evolved from my love of writing. Although I have to say that the last thing someone who writes for a living wants to do is to come home after a day in the office and then spend several hours focused on their latest work of fiction! I have been very lucky in that I have had the time to pursue my own original fiction. And I know what I like; I like to write books that I would like ...

b>About the Author D. L. Given lives in Ohio with her husband Bruce What inspires you to write romance books? I didn’t intend to write a romance novel, but some believe that the close relationships of the characters may have led the story in that direction. “Vital Perception” is the second book in a two book series following “The Elder Effect”. Tell us about how you write: I use no outline a take very few notes when writing. The storyline and the characters fall into place as the book progresses. Do you listen (or talk to) to your characters? When ...
