Felicity Niven is a hopeful romantic. Writing Regency romance is her third career after two degrees from Harvard. And you know what they say about third things? Yep, it’s a charm. She splits her time between the temperate South in the winter and the cool Great Lakes in the summer and thinks there can be no greater comforts than a pot of soup on the stove, a set of clean sheets on the bed, and a Jimmy Stewart film on a screen in the living room. -

**I ONLY RATE BOOKS I REALLY ENJOYED**.
Buy books on Amazon
Before I began writing I spent time as a dock worker, a reader for the blind, a criminal prosecutor, and I taught American History on the college level for five years. My last job was running an 8-bedroom bed and breakfast, a subject I will never write about...
I like historical fiction because I enjoy escaping into the past when I relax. And I write romance because I love a happy ending and everything that happens along the way.
I came to writing late in life and I feel like I have to write fast to catch up! I work every day at a desk looking out over the Sangre de Cristo mountains, my free range birds, and my three flock protecting hounds Earl, Spot, and Rover.
When I'm not writing I'm playing with my -

Elisa Braden
Reading romance novels came easily to Elisa Braden. Writing them? That took a little longer. After graduating with degrees in creative writing and history, Elisa spent too many years in “real” jobs writing T-shirt copy ... and other people’s resumes ... and articles about giftware displays. But that was before she woke up and started dreaming about the very unreal job of being a romance novelist. Better late than never.

Elisa lives in the Pacific Northwest, where you're constitutionally required to like the colors green and gray. Good thing she does. Other items on the "like" list include cute dogs, strong coffee, and epic movies. Of course, her favorite thing of all is hearing from readers who love her characters as much as she does.

HOT, HOT, HOT
I’m Lust. And I write the kind of filth you shouldn’t read in public—unless you want to soak through your panties and feel it drip down your thighs.
These stories? They’re short, shameless, and pure taboo. No slow build. No holding hands. Just raw, unfiltered heat that hits fast and fucks hard.
You’ll find yourself aching, throbbing, dripping—craving more after just a few dirty paragraphs.
Perfect for when you’re alone… or when you’re about to drag someone to bed.
These aren’t just stories. They’re foreplay.
I don’t hold back—and I don’t expect you to either. There’s a trigger warning for a reason. What I write is raw, bold, and unapologetically filthy.
