### About the Author

Kelly Caddell lives in sunny Southern California with her cats Taliesin and Morgana, who cheerfully boss her around. She is a die-hard romantic with rose-colored glasses firmly grafted to her nose, and enjoys computer and roleplaying games, tae kwon do, horses, chocolate, and watching the sun set with her significant other. "I've always been fascinated by things that go bump in the night, which is why most of my books have paranormal or fantasy settings. I'm also a sucker for a happy ending and a challenge, and who's more challenging to set up for happiness than a vampire or werewolf? Ok, there's always the sexy Atlantean lord. . .but that's another story."

The Lady and the Rogue is her second novel.
