  Samantha Anderson

  In the world of writing, you can have obsessive compulsive disorder and no one really notices. That was part of the big appeal for Samantha when she first started writing. Growing up in the middle of cornfields of the Midwest, life was all about imagination. It was either that or boredom. Samantha started off writing poems mainly, after her initial short stories were deemed disturbing or too taboo for her mother’s tastes. Then later in her life however, while she may or may not have been acting like an obsessed fan-girl (okay she admits it, she was), she stumbled upon a group of online writers and the rest is history.

  An avid vampire fan, she is more inclined to enjoy Eric Northman over Lestat.

  She is the author of The Devil’s Angel, the first novel in the Devrynne Kaine Series. The sequel to that novel is The Devil’s Apprentice, and is scheduled for release in the Winter of 2011.

  Still residing amid the cornfields of the Midwest with her fiancé and their four children, she is currently working on seven other novels. Her main goal is to be able to write various genres and not be limited to one type of story.

  Sara Reinke

  "Definitely an author to watch." That's how Romantic Times Book Reviews magazine describes Sara Reinke. New York Times best-selling author Karen Robards calls Reinke "a new paranormal star" and Love Romances and More hails her as "a fresh new voice to a genre that has grown stale." Her Brethren Series has been called "a vampire mythos as dark and disturbing as it is unique" by One Good Book Deserves Another, while New York Times and USA Today best-selling author Sharon Sala raves that the series' "bite -- and what comes with it -- is worth the blood."

  Alissa Rindels

  Alissa was drawn to art by the unlimited possibilities to display contrast. Dark vs. light, romance and violence, ugliness and beauty; the allure of the villain. She is a storyteller at heart, as she believes every artist is in their own way. If you're partial to the darker side of art, visit Alissa’s website. Browse through a collection of original paintings, watercolor, and charcoal works, fantasy prints, and unique merchandise, all from the artist.
