edit data

Tara Straight is a Stetson University graduate and lifelong bookworm. If she’s not writing about fantasy worlds with swoon-worthy romances, she’s probably reading about them. Having spent most of her life in central Florida, some of her greatest joys are walking on the beach, visiting Florida’s many springs, frequenting the theme parks, and attending comic and anime conventions. No matter what she may be doing, you can guarantee it is with her husband, daughter, and daughter’s stuffed pink bunny in tow.
