About this author

An enthusiastic and voracious reader of everything from 18th century novels to misplaced cereal boxes, Elyse has worked as a freelance magazine writer for the past several years.

Her first work of fiction, The Debutante’s Dilemma, was published by Carina Press in the fall of 2010. Her first contemporary romance, "Learning Curves" was published in June, 2011

In addition to her writing commitments, Elyse also teaches film and literature at a local community college. In her free time she enjoys (well, enjoys might be too strong a word – perhaps pursues with dogged determination would be better) never ending renovations on their century cottage with her intrepid husband and two boys.

With her excellent writerly imagination, she one day dreams of t...more

The Native Star by M.K. Hobson
The Native Star (Veneficas Americana, #1)
by M.K. Hobson (Goodreads Author)
read in July, 2012
An evocative and sustined AU America that blends steampunk, fantasy, romance and western generic conventions in very convincing fashion. I enjoyed it a lot and am looking forward to reading the sequel.
The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson
" I have very, very mixed feelings about this book... hence the 3-star review. This review has been rated PG-13 for language. You've been warned. I call this review "The Greatest Story Poorly Told."

Why I liked it...

“But as the sun slipped even further, his eyes weren’t drawn to the horizon. He watched Lily as she stood on the dock, glorying in the golden ritual, her russet hair slipping free from its ponytail to frame her face with messy abandon.
This is the view I need to be happy, she’d said.
The irony was exquisite. Because that was what he whispered to himself every time he saw her too.
And there wasn’t a damn thing he could ever do about it.”
Elyse Mady, Something So Right

“He drew her finger from his mouth, and they simply stood motionless, her small hand in his larger one, their eyes fixed and wide. Then, with a sound that was half grunt, half plea, he hauled her against his ragingly erect body and kissed her.
Kissed her the way he’d kissed her so many times in his dreams.
Only this time it was real. And so much better.”
Elyse Mady, Something So Right

“There was a moment when I changed from an amateur to a professional. I assumed the burden of a profession, which is to write even when you don't want to, don't much like what you're writing, and aren't writing particularly well”
Agatha Christie

“Unless you are good at guessing, it is not much use being a detective.”
Agatha Christie
