Would you like the long or the short version of my bio?
The short? You got it.
I write steamy gay romance books and I love it. I also love reading books. Books are everything.
How was that?
A little more detail? Gotcha.
I started writing my first stories when I was a teen…on a freaking typewriter. I still have these, and they’re adorably romantic. And bad, haha. Fear of failing kept me from following my dream to become a romance author, so you can imagine how proud and ecstatic I am that I finally overcame my fears and self-doubt and did it. I adore my genre because I love writing and reading about flawed, strong men who are just a tad broken…but find their happy ever after anyway.
My favorite books to read are pretty much all MM/gay romances as long as it has a happy end. Kink is a plus… Aside from that, I also read a lot of nonfiction and not just books on writing. Popular psychology is a favorite topic of mine and so are self-help and sociology.
Hobbies? Ain’t nobody got time for that. Just kidding. I love traveling, spending time near the ocean, and hiking. But I love books more.

Acknowledgments
This book was written in a relatively short period, even shorter than I had panned because of some personal shit that made it impossible for me to write. I owe a massive thank you to Zolie and Vicki who helped me breathe during those weeks. Literally.
Vicki: you made another gorgeous cover, and I didn’t even make you do fifty revisions on this one. I’d say that’s a win, haha. You make my life better and my work easier. Thank you for being awesome. #SnarkyBitchesForever
Jamie: you were once again super flexible and delivered top-notch editing. Thank you so much. And you’re welcome for the hilarious dictation-typos, haha. All those eyebrows shutting up, LOL.
My fab beta readers: Kyleen, Karina, TA, and Vicki, thanks for your awesome job on the beta read. You all caught different errors, including some potentially embarrassing ones (hello, blue eyes, haha…and fuzzy babies, LOL). Plus, your comments alone while reading make it worth it for me (cue Lion King music!).
My fellow authors from Reading Past the Realm: how much fun we had this month with all our releases! I’m so grateful for your support. Let’s do this again.
Nookies: my sweet Nookies (the readers in my Facebook group), you are all so unbelievably awesome. Those tough weeks when all that shit went down, you guys lifted me up. I am so grateful for this group. It’s my happy place.
Thank you, dear readers, for reading my books and supporting an independent author like me. If you loved this book, please leave a review, as it’s one of the most helpful things you can do for an indie author!
