About the Author

Penn Cole

While my life has taken me through a lot of ups and downs, my love for reading and writing has forever been my true north. I've been writing stories since my childhood, filling mountains of notebooks with wild worlds and angsty romances. After a detour as an attorney and small business owner, I am thrilled to finally be pursuing my lifelong dream of becoming an author. Though I'm a Texas girl born and bred, I currently live in France with my husband, where I can usually be found drinking far too much wine and eating far, far too many pastries.
