Featured Authors

Deidra Duncan – Love Sick, Until I Die
By day (and some nights), Deidra is a board-certified OB/GYN where life is either routine monotony or sheer terror. She lives in Florida with her two human tornadoes and the wonderful man who helped make them. Usually dressed in scrubs or glitter (dreaming of combining the two), she spends every spare moment reading or writing romance.

Christy Schillig – Wish You Weren’t Here, Lessons in Falling
Christy is a middle school teacher living in a log cabin in suburban South Jersey with her husband (best friend since sixth grade), two kids, and dogs Puppay and Sheep. A Villanova grad in Italian Literature, she uses her degree to commentate classroom games in Italian and sneak YA paranormal romance reading under her desk.

Libby Tanner – Better Than Gelato
Libby grew up in a small Northern California town that felt stifling at the time but now inspires her heart. A communications major turned romance author, she’s married to the world’s sexiest accountant and raising four sweet hooligans. Her dream date? Crab legs in a hot air balloon over a vineyard.
