Guest Bio:
Emily is an east-coast Canadian thirtysomething mom of two gremlins. Her lumbersexual husband doesn’t actually work in lumber anymore, but he still wears the plaid and the beard. As well as authoring, she’s a freelance editor and ghostwriter.
Her books range in genre from Romance and Erotica to Horror and Science Fiction, and everything in between.
