V.J. Allison was born and raised in southern Nova Scotia, Canada, and her work reflects her strong Maritime roots. She is a stay-at-home mother to a son on the autism spectrum, married to the love of her life, and “mama” to a rescued Maine Coon cat named Marnie. She has been writing various stories of novel length and short stories since her school days, and sees writing as a vital component to her life.
Her debut novel, Stricken (Feathered Tartan 1) was originally released as a standalone by Extasy Books in 2017 to great acclaim, and has since kicked off a four book series, with the fifth and final book under production as of 2026.
Her first paranormal/horror romance, Eternity's Gamble, was released by Decadent Publishing on October 1, 2021.
When she isn’t writing, she loves to read romance and science fiction novels (notably Star Wars); listen to music (heavy metal, rock, alternative); and do graphics design. She runs her own graphics design company, Amethyst Rose Productions, specializing in book covers, original artwork, and other custom graphic arts. She is also an editor, an author PA under her real name, and spends a lot of time helping other authors.
This self-proclaimed geeky rocker chick is a warrior and advocate for various chronic illnesses including Occipital Neuralgia, Trigeminal Neuralgia, Diabetes, Migraines, and Glossopharyngeal Neuralgia. She is also an advocate for the prevention of animal cruelty and is a voice for Autism Awareness.
