Katherine E. Webb

The epitome of a late bloomer, Katherine managed her near constant sexual frustration as an adolescent by writing spicy romance shorts to entertain herself and her close friends. This hobby continued into college, where she began posting her shorts to a blog no one visited.

Many years later, when her mother lost her battle to cancer, Katherine inherited a Kindle fully loaded with romance novels. Katherine decided to read all the stories loaded onto the eReader to feel closer to her late mother, ultimately reigniting her passion for steamy love stories and inspiring her to write her own. Her work will always feature characters with experiences and viewpoints which are often underrepresented in mainstream romance.

Marina Hill

Hi! I'm Marina. Thanks so much for stopping by!

I grew up minutes from Philadelphia watching Eagles games and roughhousing with my plethora of older brothers. Writing stories has been a constant in my life with publications starting at sixteen under various pen names.

I write a variety of novels from historical fiction to contemporary romance with an eventual path into fantasy. However, all of my books have comfort, emotion, and fun.

When I'm not working on my next story, I'm planning to dash into the forest to build a cabin and never look back.

Feara's name is a result of the alter ego character she crafted at the age of 9 in order to embody the antithesis of her own self; a fearless, strong, and enduring character. She uses this alter ego to empower her to work through her fear of failure and disappointment, thus the name ‘Feara’.

Juniper Jackson

Hey bookworms! I'm Juniper and The Soul Feud is my first contemporary romance novel.

I was inspired to write this story after watching the city of Seattle gentrify. At that time in my life, I was beyond angry. I'd be out at a bar and strike up a conversation with a stranger, only to have to bite my tongue after finding out they had moved from California to take a job at someplace like Amazon. There were so many moments where I wanted to scream, "Go back to where you came from! I grew up in the PNW and you're ruining my home!" I stewed in my anger (unlike Raven, who has no filter ;), until eventually I also had to leave the city to afford the life I wanted to live.

During my time in Seattle, I met a woman who was from an inner city neighborho
