Multi-award-winning suspense author Leslie Marshman uses her psychology degree to get inside the heads of her characters and figure out what makes them tick. She writes novels that feature strong heroines, the heroes who love 'em, and the bad guys who fear 'em. Leslie called Denver home until she married a Texan without reading the fine print.

Kacy Cross writes romance novels starring swoon-worthy heroes and smart heroines. She lives in Texas, where she's seen bobcats and beavers near her house, but sadly not one cowboy. She's raising two mini-ninjas alongside the love of her life, who cooks while she writes, which is her definition of a true hero. Come for the romance, stay for the happily-ever-after. She promises her books "will make you laugh, cry and swoon - cross my heart."
