About the Author

As a child, Ella read every book she could get her hands on, which meant most of her dad’s science fiction and fantasy collection. There she found a special love of elves, dragons and knights. Now that she’s found her own knight in shining armor and happily ever after, she loves to write tales of fantasy, hot enough to scorch the sheets.

Before she started writing, Ella was a waitress, a cashier, a receptionist to a U.S. senator, a network admin, a web developer and an all-around card-carrying geek. One day she sat down and wrote that first sentence. She hasn’t stopped since. A 2010 PRISM finalist, she’s written gothic romance with cursed families, shape-shifters and science fiction. She’d love to hear from readers and can be found at her website, www.elladrake.com, on Twitter as Lori_Ella or on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/ella.drake.
