Allyson Charles lives in Northern California. A former attorney, she happily ditched those suits and now works in her pajamas writing about men's briefs instead of legal briefs. When she's not writing, she's probably engaged in one of her favorite hobbies: napping, eating, or martial arts (That last one almost makes up for the first two, right?). One of Ally's greatest disappointments is living in a state that doesn't have any Cracker Barrels in it. You can find her at www.allysoncharles.com or on Twitter @authallysoncharles.

Award-winning author Stacey Keith doesn't own a television, but reads compulsively--and would, in fact, go stark raving bonkers without books, most of which are crammed into every corner of the house. She lives with her jazz musician boyfriend in Civita Castellana, a medieval village in Italy that sits atop a cliff, and she spends her days writing in a nearby abandoned 13th century church. But the two things she is most proud of are her ability to cook pasta alla matriciana without burning down the kitchen and swearing volubly in Italian with all the appropriate hand gestures. chevron_left Read Less
