Tessia Ives
About The Author
On Saturdays, Tessia is often found daydreaming about the plot of her next book, eating mint malt balls, riding horses, and wishing she had a pet owl. She’s less whimsical the rest of the week, when she is hard at work writing burn-the-world-down romance and adventure in fantastical settings—the kinds of stories she would want to read, and hopes you will too!
Tessia lives in California with her husband and various furred and feathered beasts. She holds two degrees from Stanford University.
