Suzanne Enoch

Suzanne was born in Southern California sometime in the latter half of the 20th century.

Early dreams of becoming a zoologist and writing true stories about her adventures in Africa were crushed, however, after she viewed a television special about the world’s most poisonous snakes; she did NOT want to write about how she’d been bitten and lost a limb to a cobra.

Like the time that she climbed a tree with five of her friends and the tree bent double. Her friends jumped. Charlene ... didn't. The tree catapulted her within chain-length of the neighborhood attack dog - Thor, the Dog of Thunder. Later, Charlene's grandmot

M.J. Ray

I live in the Northwest of England with my husband and two children.

In between working part time as a childminder, caring for my children and providing taxi duties I somehow find time to write. My ambition was always to write and I'm so happy that I'm finally getting a chance to do that.

I write YA sweet romance, where I get to create my dream man time and time again, and he gets to be different every time. I am lucky to have a real life perfect man at home that doesn't mind sharing me when I'm writing.

I hope you enjoy my books, as the ideas just keep coming there will be many more!
