S.L. Baron isn't a full-time writer but keeps wishing she could quit her day job. She’s been scribbling down stories since she was a small child, and she’s glad the evidence of those stories no longer exists. After reading Anne Rice’s Interview With The Vampire, she found her Muse. She’s been obsessed with vampires and other types of immortals ever since. When she’s not writing about her own Children of the Night, she reads all she can get her hands on about these and other supernatural creatures.

S.L. grew up near the shore in the New Jersey Pinelands but lives in West Virginia. She graduated from West Virginia University with a Bachelor of Arts in psychology. Keeping her company is her partner in crime, Tim, and three insane cats. ...more

I never should have looked up. Wondered about that woman wrapping a shawl around her pale shoulders, pressing her petite hand upon the window. Her eyes met mine, beckoned to me. Begged me to be her hero.

A prisoner of a cruel father or husband who kept her locked away so high above the beautiful city below. At least that’s what I thought. The young fool that I was.
