About the Author
Erin Beaty was born and raised in Indianapolis, Indiana and studied rocket science at the U.S. Naval Academy (really). After tours as weapons officer on a destroyer and a leadership instructor, she quit the navy to raise five kids, and once they were all in school, her brain didn't know what to do with that much free time so she started writing books. She and her husband make a home wherever the navy sends them, which has ranged from Kansas to Korea. She is the author of the Traitor's Kiss trilogy and the Blood and Moonlight duology.
