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—especially romance, adventure, and sci-fi.

She started penning sexy stories several years ago and admits she’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 ménage, 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. ♥
