About the author

Marilyn Lakewood

<p>Marilyn lives in the northwest U.S., not too far from the Canadian border and believes the long, cold winters are perfect writing weather. She loves all things coffee; reading and writing books; walks in the country with her hubby and their rescued dog; and watching movies&mdash;especially romance, adventure, and sci-fi.</p><p>She started penning sexy stories several years ago and admits she&rsquo;s obsessed with creating protective alpha heroes and happily-ever-after endings. Her erotic romances range in heat levels from sweet to hardcore, sometimes include m&eacute;nage, and usually have themes of dominance and submission. The road to love is a little hard at times. You may need to buckle your cuffs. &hearts;</p>
