Beverly decided she had nothing to lose and since she&#8217;d always wanted to be an author sent it in and agonized for months waiting to hear back. Contract in hand she has never looked back.<\/p>\n<p>Beverly has been obsessed with dragons and romance since she was a young girl, collecting dragon books and reading everything she could find on them even down to the care of real life dragons. She&#8217;s always been slightly panicked that the world as we know it will end, so has prepped for it, haunting survivalist pages and prepper projects she felt she needed in the event SHTF.<\/p>\n<p>An avid fan of all romance, Beverly&#8217;s goal is to share her love of the written word and write the hot and erotic romances that she enjoys. She writes what she loves to read and it was only a matter of time before her obsessions crept into her writing for her to share. She hopes you enjoy her tales as much as she loves writing them.<\/p>\n<p>A Navy Veteran, Beverly has traveled around the world and the United States enabling her to bring her settings to life, meeting and marrying her husband of thirty years along the way for her own romance. Reading romances since the fourth grade she&#8217;s followed as the genre changed and spread into the vast cornucopia of romance offered today.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Amazon Bestseller in Erotica Paranormal AND Erotica Science Fiction The apocalypse has come and gone.
