Alexandria Bellefleur is an award-winning USA TODAY bestselling author of swoony contemporary romance often featuring loveable grumps and the sunshine characters who bring them to their knees. Her debut novel, Written in the Stars, was a 2021 Lambda Literary Award winner and a 2020 winner of The Ripped Bodice Awards for Excellence in Romantic Fiction. Elise Bryant is the NAACP Image Award–nominated author of Happily Ever Afters, One True Loves, Reggie and Delilah’s Year of Falling, It’s Elementary, and The Game Is Afoot. For many years, Elise had the joy of working as a special education teacher, and now she spends her days reading, writing, and eating dessert. She lives with her husband and two daughters in Long Beach, California. Lifelong nerd Olivia Dade has held various rewarding jobs over the years—librarian, high school teacher, Colonial Williamsburg interpreter—but is thrilled to have finally achieved her ultimate goal of wearing pajamas all day as a hermit-like writer and enthusiastic hag. She currently lives outside Stockholm with her delightful family and their ever-burgeoning collection of books. Alexis Daria is the award-winning and USA Today bestselling author of You Had Me at Hola, Along Came Amor, Take the Lead, and more. Her books have been featured on several “Best of” lists and have received starred reviews from multiple trade publications. A former visual artist, Alexis is a lifelong New Yorker who loves Broadway musicals and pizza. Sarah Hogle is a mom of three who enjoys K-dramas and provoking her husband for attention. Her dream is to live in a falling-apart castle in a forest that is probably cursed. She is also the author of You Deserve Each Other, Twice Shy, Just Like Magic, Old Flames and New Fortunes, and The Folklore of Forever. Zakiya N. Jamal was born in Queens, raised on Long Island, and currently resides in Brooklyn. In other words, she’s a New Yorker through and through. When she’s not writing romance novels, she’s falling in love with a K-drama, watching a romcom, or cuddling with her dog Sammy. You can find her on social media at @ZakiyaNJamal. Rebecca Jenshak is a USA TODAY bestselling author of new adult and sports romance. She writes sexy, feel-good stories with lots of swoon-worthy moments. Rebecca lives in Arizona. When she isn’t writing, you can find her cheering on local sports teams, hanging out with friends and family, or curled up with a good book. Susan Lee is a USA TODAY bestselling author of young adult and adult romantic comedies. Her work has been featured in national outlets such as NPR, Oprah Daily, and Harper’s Bazaar. Kirkus Reviews calls her voice “honest, fresh and thoughtful.” Susan built a career as an executive at some of today’s hottest companies but now channels her energy into publishing Happily Ever Afters for those historically underrepresented in romance. When not writing Susan can be found in her pajamas all day cuddling with her senior diva chihuahua, Buttercup. Joss Richard (she/her) is the international bestselling author of It’s Different This Time who’s worked at companies such as Hello Sunshine and Reese’s Book Club, The Walt Disney Company, The Ellen DeGeneres Show, Netflix, and Paramount. She’s also the creator and host of Three’s Company, Too: A Rewatch Podcast and has been formally recognized with a Daytime Emmy Award. Born in Toronto, Ontario, to Filipino immigrant parents, Richard currently lives and works in Los Angeles, California. Writing as M.A. Wardell, Lambda Literary Award nominee Matt writes spicy, heartfelt gay romance. He’s passionate about telling adult queer love stories featuring flawed, messy men who deserve big feelings, real growth, and a happily ever after. Matt grew up craving more queer representation in the media, so now he writes the stories he always wanted to experience. He’s the author of the Teacher in Love series as well as other stories that center queer joy. After years of meddling in her friends’ love lives, Rebekah Weatherspoon turned to writing romance to get her fix. Many award-winning novels later she still believes in love, the fluffier the better. Raised in southern New Hampshire, Rebekah now lives in southern California with her dog Lizzie. She will remain there forever because she hates moving. Jessica Joyce is the bestselling author of relatable, character-driven contemporary romance stories that feature as much yearning as she can stuff into them. When she’s not working on a new book, you can find her making a playlist, watching Sleepless in Seattle and the 2005 version of Pride & Prejudice on repeat, or curled up with a book she didn’t have to write.
