PictureAnna Bishop Barker
"I was born in Kentucky and raised in Florida, so I am a southerner through and through. Since I was old enough to pick up a book, I have been a voracious reader. I wrote the usual poetry and short stories in high school, but life happened and I kept the dream of writing in the back of my heart until opportunity and encouragement helped me to realize that dream.

I live in Tampa with my kids and grand kids and dogs and various other livestock. I am a bona fide Trekkie and all-around, unashamed geek. 

My dream is to write the kind of books that I like to read – romantic, suspenseful, humorous and heartfelt, with a lot of hot sex!

Three random facts about me:
1. I was bitten by a shark when I was 14.
2. I have read War and Peace. (When I get to the afterlife, I am demanding that week of my life back. Sorry, Tolstoy.)
3. It is my sincere belief that any situation can be improved by eating some cheese."


Anna Bishop Barker writes characters in their prime, Small Town Romance, Contemporary Romance, Romantic Suspense and Military Romance. You can find out more about Anna and her books at: https://annabishopbarkerbooks.com


PictureAnna Blakely
As an author of romantic suspense and military romance novels, Anna Blakely brings you
stories of love, action, and edge-of-your-seat excitement. As an avid reader of romantic suspense herself, Anna’s dream is to create stories her readers will enjoy and characters they’ll fall in love with as much as she has. She believes in true love and happily-ever-after, and that’s what she will always, always bring to you.

Though Anna has been a writer at heart for many years, she didn’t publish her first book until
January 2019. Much to her delight, her debut R.I.S.C. series has received off-the-charts reviews,
as has Rescuing Gracelynn—the first book in her new R.I.S.C. spin-off series.
Inspired by her readers’ support and love of her stories, Anna decided to take a huge leap of
faith. In May 2019, she resigned her tenured job as an elementary teacher to focus on her writing full-time. Now, with the unwavering support from her incredible family, Anna spends most of her days in her home office, clicking away to create even more of her exciting, suspenseful love stories.

Anna currently lives in rural Missouri with her husband, children, and several rescued animals…including a donkey named Fred. When she’s not writing, Anna enjoys reading, watching action shows like SEAL Team and Chicago PD, as well as horror movies (the scarier the better). Above all, Anna treasures the time spent with her amazing husband, four wonderful children,
and her adorable—and sometimes ornery—granddaughter.


Anna writes Contemporary Romance, Romantic Suspense and Military Romance.

Miranda Lynn is a mother to two teenage boys who are sure they know it all,
two four-legged fur babies on who believes she is a lap dog at 75lb and one who takes over pillows at night and is smallish at 15lb. She is thankful her husband doesn’t mind the extra voices in her head and her constant talking to them.

Miranda is an only child who grew up on a dairy farm in Illinois which left her
plenty of time to make up stories in her head for entertainment. She currently
resides in Tennessee where she wonders if Mother Nature will ever stop with the hormonal mood swings. She fuels herself with coffee, chocolate, and wine.

Miranda writes Paranormal Romance and Time Travel Romance. You can find out more about Miranda and her books at:

But it was romance novels that took her to places she’d only dreamed of and solidified her love of all things romance and swoony. But, it’s her family who keep her feet on the ground when her mind travels too far from home, delivering both a reality check and a nudge to keep it real.

PictureReina Torres
"Who would have thought that I'd start off as a painfully shy child writing stories and end up as a painfully shy adult writing books and publishing them for others to read? Crazy? That's me!!

When I was a little girl, I read every book I could get my hands on and if I didn't have one available to read, I'd get out my pencils and paper and write down stories and scenes. Waiting for my mom to finish working, I'd duck into the ladies' breakroom and use the typewriter. I'd feel like Jessica Fletcher, happily tap, tap, tapping away until I got to 'The End.' Couldn't quite get the flourish after that and end up tearing the paper, but it was cool and scary to sit down and read the book or give it to my friends to read. 

Now my 'typewriter' doesn't clack the same way and the I don't even have paper to pull out of it with a nod of satisfaction, but I have the joy and excitement of sharing my characters and books with people all around the world! I hope you'll enjoy reading my books, because I'm going to keep writing as long as the characters are feeling chatty!"

PictureRenee George
​USA Today Bestselling author Renee George writes paranormal mysteries and romances because she loves all things whodunit, Otherworldly, and weird.

When she’s not writing about mystery-solving werecougars or the adventures of a hapless psychic living among shapeshifters, she is preyed upon by stray kittens who end up living in her house because she can't say no to those sweet, furry faces. (Someone stop telling them where she lives!)

She resides in Mid-Missouri with her family and spends her non-writing time doing really cool stuff...like watching TV and cleaning up dog poop.
