J J. V. Speyer writes LGBTQ+ romance novels heavily flavored with suspense, mystery, and adventure.

She currently lives just south of Boston in a house old enough to remember when her town was a tavern community with a farming problem. J. V. finds most of her inspiration from music. Her tastes run the gamut from traditional to industrial and back again. When not writing she is a baseball fan, a hockey mom, and a devotee of all things weird and creepy about New England.
