Allegra Gray is a former military officer—turned English professor—turned homeland defense analyst. One thing she has always been, though, is a storyteller. Allegra wrote her first book at the age of 5 (it has yet to be published). Allegra began her publishing career while teaching in the English department of the U.S. Air Force Academy, but soon discovered that non-fiction, academic work was not enough to satisfy her creative drive. She turned to fiction, and launched her career as a novelist with Kensington Publishing, with the release of a historical romance, “Nothing But Scandal” in 2009. Allegra lives in Colorado and writes novels full of steamy intrigue that interweave her love of history, legend, and romance.
