Vanessa North
Author of over a dozen novels, novellas, and short stories, Vanessa North delights in giving happy-ever-afters to characters who don’t think they deserve them.

Her very patient husband pretends not to notice when her hobbies take over the house. Living and writing in Northwest Georgia, she finds her attempts to keep a quiet home are frequently thwarted by twin boy-children and a very, very large dog.

Denise Wells
Denise has been reading since before she could talk. And to this day, escaping into a book is her go-to activity before anything else.
Buy books on Amazon
She likes to write about sassy women and semi-flawed alpha-esque men (hard on the outside and just a little soft on the inside.) Denise’s female characters always have strong friendships, potty mouths, and like to drink—a lot.
Denise is loyal to a fault, a bit too sarcastic, blindingly optimistic, and pretty freakin’ happy with life overall. If she couldn't be a writer, she'd be a singer in a classic rock band. Right after she learned to carry a tune. She has more purses than days in the month, an obsession with colored ink pens, and a slightly unhealthy bracelet habit.

Lucinda lives in a small village in the English countryside, surrounded by rolling hills, cows and sheep. She started writing to fill time between jobs and is now firmly and unashamedly addicted.

K.L. Belanger
K.L. Belanger has always had a love affair with words, so it just seemed natural she would grow up to use those words to paint a portrait of a love affair; of romance and passion and the struggle of the heart to overcome all the obstacles the world throws in the path of those who—by choice or design—dare to walk a different path. To choose to love, despite the obstacles, is the highest form of courage, and to give oneself without restraint, the most beautiful picture of sacrifice. To change the world, we must first choose to change ourselves.

Elizabeth Fontaine
For Elizabeth Fontaine, growing up Buddhist in a small town in Central Minnesota wasn’t easy. She reacted to the unease of young adulthood by living life to the fullest, which is a “Minnesota nice” way of saying she frequently got herself and others into trouble. When she wasn’t being a delinquent, she was probably making up stories, which, of course, led to more trouble. Elizabeth became a respectable adult, with a couple of college degrees, a teaching career, and a family. Fortunately, she still gets into trouble and loves to write about young adults, who are also living life to the fullest.
