Committed: An Erotic Valentine's Tale (3 page)

Living in North Carolina, talented, multi-published author, Lissa Matthews, has many loves in her life: Family, friends, NASCAR, football, music of all kinds, cooking, BDSM, and last, but not least, coffee. She loves it so much she and those who know her are surprised she hasn't floated away on a caffeine-induced cloud while giving life to feisty heroines and hunky heroes.

Lissa's love of romance came from every book she has ever picked up. No matter what she read, she fell in love with the written word. The promise of escape, the deep, intriguing characters, and the winding journey from beginning to end, constantly drew her into bookstores and libraries as she was growing up.

Her first stories were written in junior high and she kept it up through college. She would stay up late at night when her kids were little reading romance and still penning her own stories. In 2007 when she and her family moved to North Carolina from Florida, she began pursuing writing as a profession and she couldn't imagine doing anything else... Well, except maybe writing in her own cupcake bakery/coffee shop. But that dream is a ways down the road... Lucky for Lissa, she believes in dreams coming true.

Lissa is married with two children and seven, yes, seven cats. She's blames her oldest child for the cats.
