Alexandra Brenton

Since growing up as an only child in Manhattan (when she was sure she was the only child in Manhattan), Alexandra has known she would be an author. She's been reading romance since the age of ten (under the covers, with a flashlight, of course) and started her first book (a Regency romance meets Akira-style anime) at fourteen. After a brief dalliance with the legal profession, Alexandra now writes contemporary romance with "clever, snappy dialog."

Alex (or Alexandra, as her friends call her) likes writing books about strong-willed women and tough, impenetrable alpha males who are just little more developed than cave men.

She lives in Newport, Rhode Island with her husband, two adorable twin boys, and an evil cat named Kate Middleton.
