edit data

Laura Bailey loves writing erotic romance with an edge. She has a thing for stunningly handsome, dominant alpha males..
She grew up reading Romance, and never stopped.
It was inevitable she would have to write it herself..
She loves Romance, Hot Dominant Alpha Males, Sexual Tension, Fiesty Heroines, Dark chocolate, Whisky, and Happy Ever Afters.
She has a weakness for men in uniform, sharply tailored suits, and a sexy southern drawl. (You know who you are...)
She divides her time between London and Washington D.C.
When she's not writing, her head is usually stuck in a romance book. ...more
