About the Author

Kathleen Ayers loves romance, but found that some novels were too tame, others much too graphic and the rest just plain boring. She decided to write the kind of book she liked reading. A book with a smart, witty heroine and a not too perfect hero, who seduce each with their minds AND bodies.

Kathleen Ayers lives in Houston, TX with her husband and son. She's currently hard at work on the next Wickeds novel.
