Ainsley Shay avoids insanity by living mostly in the fiction world. She believes surrounding herself with positive people, and strives for balance in everything.

She longs to move north one day, even though she hates the cold. (Go figure!) So, for now, she continues to live in warm south Florida with her incredible husband, three beautiful daughters, and two lazy cats. (We won’t mention the dog.)

After the Curtain Falls ~ Chapter One

Chapter 1
Three minutes. I roll my sleeves up to my elbows and take one last look in the small mirror hanging to my right. Beneath dark strands of hair, black-lined eyes flash with uncontained eagerness.

Revenge at its finest! I love the tension between Edge and Kinsley. The enemies to lovers trope, the push and pull is perfect. She’s strong and a survivor. Both have secrets, both have agendas. Can’t wait to read book 2!

Quotes by Ainsley Shay (?)

“When I stepped out from the heat of the bathroom into the apartment, cool air engaged in a conversation with my warm skin in the language of goose bumps.”
