I\u2019m Vinni George. I write LGBTQ+ romance (mostly MM with some FF coming in 2026) in several subgenres including contemporary, shifter romantic suspense, and shifter MPREG (omegaverse where male omegas can get pregnant and have babies). When I\u2019m not writing, I can be found working in the accounting and HR department at my family\u2019s business. I live in Ohio (outside Cleveland) with my husband and son. I love to travel, I\u2019m 100% a Disney adult, and I\u2019m addicted to all things cute. I am part of the LGBTQ+ community and identify as panromantic and demisexual.<\/div>\n<div tabindex=\"0\" role=\"textbox\" aria-label=\"Tell us your name and a little bit about yourself?\" aria-disabled=\"true\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"Qr7Oae\" role=\"listitem\">\n<div class=\"OxAavc NVbRL\" data-item-id=\"92528439\">\n<div class=\"pYfr3c\">\n<div class=\"prOLdf\">\n<div class=\"g53bl\">\n<div class=\"cTDvob D1wxyf RjsPE\" role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"3\" aria-describedby=\"i.desc.92528439\"><span class=\"M7eMe\">&#x1f3f3;&#x200d;&#x1f308; <strong>What is the title of your most recent release?<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"xMZTse Ih4Dzb\">\n<div class=\"Mh5jwe JqSWld yqQS1\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"textbox\" aria-describedby=\"c309\" aria-label=\"What is the title of your most recent release?\" aria-disabled=\"true\">My most recent release is Monochrome, book 4 in my ORCA (Organization for the Return of Criminals and Assets) series.

OMG Vinni!!!When you step out you step out&#8230;LOL&#8230;this mpreg was great. I read a lot of mpreg\/shifter\/alpha&amp;omega romances and I thoroughly enjoyed your paranormal world. It was passionate, romantic, warm and inviting&#8230;very low on the angst scale(which I LOVE). Jonah and his hot older doctor Edwin had that instant connection that couldn&#8217;t be denied&#8230;fated mates&#8230;.LOVED IT! Glad I had an opportunity to read this because I would have sooooo disappointed if I missed out on something special and this series looks like it will be. 5STARS!!!! This stood out to me because this reader found me through my contemporary titles and took a chance on my first shifter MPREG book.<\/div>\n<div tabindex=\"0\" role=\"textbox\" aria-label=\"Do you have a favorite review(s) of one of your books left by a reader?
