Allison Olivia technically lives in a small town in Virginia, but her head has been perpetually in the clouds since she was a child. When she can be found in reality, she is surrounded by a never-ending TBR and love from her cat and dog (Phoebe and Duncan, respectively). She holds no fancy degree, awards, or the ability to talk about herself—though she's never got the hang of shutting up about her favorite books—but she boasts a hopelessly romantic soul that yearns for soft caresses and precious displays of love. Hence her penchant for writing romance in both contemporary and fantasy settings. Beyond written words, she loves to delve into practices of spirituality, mindfulness, and talking to the moon (it doesn't talk back, don't worry).
