Lexi's imagination runs wild …sort of like a starving cat at a sushi buffet. Okay maybe not that bad but you get the picture. This is a good thing when she channels her energy into creating fresh, fun paranormal stories. Lexi graduated from UCLA with a degree in English. She also received a certificate in professional screenwriting from UCLA. Fascinated by the supernatural realm, Lexi prefers to write stories that are out-of-the-ordinary. At first, she wrote horror but that ended after she scared herself a few times and ran out of the room. Convinced by an editor to focus on her witty sense of humor, sharp dialogue and unique voice, Lexi abandoned hard-edged horror and opted to write wickedly entertaining, humorous stories. This move landed her a multi-book deal with Pocket Books, an imprint of Simon & Schuster. Her debut novel, PRETTY EVIL, was released in October, 2005 to rave reviews and was nominated by The ROMANTIC TIMES BOOK CLUB for "Best First Novel, African American." Though her approach is fun and light, PRETTY EVIL serves as a warning to all proclaimed “playas” who like to live fast, but dangerously. "You don't really know who or what you're taking home with you. One night of thrills could cost you a lot," warns Lexi Davis. Her second book, THE AFTER WIFE, hit stores in early April, 2009, and already, fans and new readers are raving about the fast-paced, unique and light style of her writing. As a writer, Lexi’s greatest fear is to bore an audience. With a debut novel as racy and “out of the box” as PRETTY EVIL, and a follow-up novel as uniquely crafted as THE AFTER WIFE, many readers feel Lexi Davis has nothing to worry about. The youngest of four children, Lexi lives near her family in Southern California.
