Speaker Bios:
Ryley Banks writes award-winning spicy romance, mostly of the LGBTQ+ variety. She’s a connoisseur of tea and gin and loves language, especially creative profanity. When she’s not begging her characters to behave or reading fanfic, you can find Ryley watching cooking how-to videos, traveling, or, if you’re lucky, crafting the next story to make you smile and set you on fire.
Calia Wilde believes the hero isn’t always the good guy, or girl. She believes some heroes and heroines cannot play by the rules to get their happily ever after. She is a writer of misfits, anti-heroes, villains, underdogs, fringe elements, and other tropes that will likely get her barred from polite society. As a feral Gen-Xer, she spent untold hours roaming the woods in search of elves, fairies, dragons, or anything that would take her away from the dreaded curse of doing dishes. She once fell off a wardrobe, but instead of landing in Narnia, a very emphatic order of “Don’t tell Mom” was decreed. In case you are wondering, yes, she landed on her head. As she searched for a career that would indulge this penchant for wearing black, she stumbled upon the world of special effects and excitedly pursued the art of sleeping in strange hotels, working ungodly hours, and handling anything that could, and would, burn, blind, explode, freeze, or otherwise entertain wildlings like herself. Her paranormal and other contemporary romance fiction encompasses untamable heroes and heroines who aren’t always good, because that’s where the fun lies.
Marie Tuhart brings to life contemporary approachable alpha heroes and spunky women who take them to task. Her high-heat, emotional books, many with BDSM elements, inviting the reader to slide the silky scarves between their fingers, and feel the kiss of a flogger on their flesh in breathless anticipation of what or who will come next. Embrace the temptation and enjoy a happily ever after that’s always all about her.
W.D. Drames lives in Washington, D.C. with a career in politics, law, and international affairs. When not writing high-heat literary love stories, the author enjoys world travel, the outdoors, opera, musical theater, fine dining, and exchanging gossip in elegant drinking establishments.
Raisa Greywood is a USA Today bestselling author of fabulously filthy smut, empty nester, and cat snuggler. Raisa has worked as a teacher, an actuary (her husband called her a bookie—which isn’t too far from the truth), mother, and scout leader. She’s happily married to her husband of almost thirty years and is now enjoying semi-retirement writing the books she always wanted to read with kick-ass heroines and sexy, sexy men.
