About the author

Alexis Sands

9 books32 followers
Alexis Sands is an own voices author, single-mom, drinker of too much coffee, obsessive cleaner, expert at starting over, and a master at building walls. Her debut novel, much like the author herself, doesn’t conform to traditional rules. Slated doesn’t fit into a cookie-cutter mold of the new adult or erotic romance genres.

As a mental health awareness advocate, she's passionate about striving for more authentic representations of characters in fiction that suffer from a mental illness.

Slated is her debut novel and Book One in the Blurred Borders Series. The character-driven series portrays the transformation of a divisive protagonist struggling with BPD on her journey to find the one!
