1-Star Review - 33:00

Author of 11 prurient books, from the Sinful to the Holi-date "ish" series, each story leaves the crest of your thighs aching and your mind considering, “Would I like that?” She’s the master of comedy and pop culture references with a sultry twist and men that care for themselves while providing you with all the aftercare. We welcome Trilina Pucci to our room.

Author Bio:

#1 Amazon and USA TODAY Bestselling Author, Trilina Pucci, loves cupcakes and bourbon.

When she isn’t writing steamy love stories, she can be found devouring Netflix with her husband, Anthony, and their three kiddos. Pucci’s journey into writing started impulsively. She wanted to check off a box on her bucket list, but what began as wish fulfillment has become incredibly fulfilling. Now she can’t see her life without her characters, her readers, and this amazing indie community.

She’s known for being a trope-defier, writing outside the box and creating fictional worlds her readers never want to leave. With every book and each character, she’s committed to writing book boyfriends worth binging and smut worth savoring.

Writer of over 40 contemporary and fantasy romances. Gifting the world with angsty, bold females drawn to dark corners of hearts.

We interview Lucinda Dark on her new book Crown of Blood and Glass that she co-authored with Rebecca Grey.

Author Bio:

Lucy Smoke/Lucinda Dark suffers from severe wanderlust and enjoys people-watching to find her next character. Who knows, maybe you’re in one of her stories as well. Author of new adult, reverse harem, and dark subgenres, but focuses the primary themes of her novels on strong heroines and romances. She lives and works in the south with her beloved puppy Hiro, and enjoys teasing the life out of her friends.
