Authors

Lea Jade lives in London with her bean-shaped dog and the rest of her non-furry family. Where she writes fun & flirty paranormal romance with plenty of magic, action and mystery suspense. All her stories end happily. Featuring smoldering alphas, or cheeky shifter bad boys needing to be tamed, who fall hard for the sassy, kick-ass heroine who doesn’t need to be saved. When she’s not pandering to the whim of her grumpy, jack-chi pup, or beating up bad guys, you can find her word-wrangling her next crazy adventure, and listening to Ed Sheeran while sipping spiced chai-latte at her local Starbucks.

L.K. Reid is a dark romance author who hates slow walkers and people being mean for no reason. She lives with her two cats, Freya and Athena, and she’s still figuring out the whole “adult” thingy. In her opinion, Halloween should be a public holiday, and she also has a small obsession with all things historical—especially Greek mythology. During high school, she wanted to be an archaeologist, and ended up studying law, but obviously neither one of those professions worked out. If she isn’t writing, she’s most probably watching horror movies, listening to music, reading, or plotting upcoming books.

I'm a reader, first and foremost. Just like everyone else. I love books that are just out there. From fluffy to pitch-black darkness. Monsters and aliens to the men who haunt your dreams painting the walls in red. My love for reading and writing reviews has led me down the road of becoming a writer myself, thanks to the encouragement of others! I'm not sure where this journey will lead me, but I hope I can breathe life into words the way so many others have done for me when I needed an escape. Stalk me! https://ydlamar.carrd.co www.ydlamar.com
