Kandi Steiner is a USA Today bestselling contemporary romance author best known for writing emotional, relatable love stories. Her works range from angsty and heart-wrenching to uplifting and sweet, offering a story for every kind of romantic. With over 35 novels to her name, Kandi has earned a devoted following of readers who affectionately dub her the "Queen of Angst".

Born in Oklahoma, a 20 year resident of Florida, and now settling down in Tennessee, Kandi draws inspiration from her surroundings, often weaving themes of family, love, and self-discovery into her narratives. When she’s not crafting compelling stories or getting lost in the words of another author, you can find her hiking in the mountains, indulging in cozy moments with her family, or practicing pole dancing and yoga. Her books, including the viral hit A Love Letter to Whiskey, have been translated into multiple languages, resonating with readers worldwide.

Lena Hendrix is a USA Today and Amazon Top 5 Bestselling contemporary romance author living in the Midwest. Her love for romance started with sneaking racy Harlequin paperbacks as a teenager and now she writes her own hot-as-sin small town romance novels. Lena has a soft spot for strong alphas with marshmallow insides, heroines who clap back, and sizzling tension. Her novels pack small town heart with a whole lotta heat.

When she's not writing or devouring new novels, you can find her hiking, camping, fishing, and sipping a spicy margarita!
