About the Author

Shelley Bradley aka Shayla Black, is the New York Times bestselling author of over 30 sizzling contemporary, erotic, paranormal, and historical romances for multiple print and electronic publishers. She has won or placed in over a dozen writing contests, including Passionate Ink's Passionate Plume, Colorado Romance Writers Award of Excellence, and the National Reader's Choice Awards. Romantic Times has awarded her Top Picks, a KISS Hero Award and a nomination for Best Erotic Romance.

She lives in Texas with her husband and daughter, juggling the many roles in her life: writer, mother, wife and all around laundress. She refuses to pick up an iron. Shelley also squeezes in time for fun activities like reading, obsessively studying all things Harry Potter, watching (again) every episode of Trading Spaces, doing step aerobics and weightlifting, and listening to an eclectic blend of music. A writing risk-taker, she enjoys tackling writing challenges with every book.
